You would only notice it when you changed the default syslog.conf to
filter user.* messages to somewhere else than /var/log/messages.
But yes, in our case I would see this as a bug fix as we suddenly saw
kernel messages written to our user.log after switching from buildroot
2016.08 to 2020.02.

Ok.

Best regards
