No, it's not tracked anywhere because the warning message itself is not the real bug, and the mere act of opening a bug report to track that low-priority bug would make it a magnet for hundreds of unrelated follow-ups. We need to be addressing the underlying causes of the message being passed through to the console, instead.

I'll try to figure out an appropriate way to suppress that message when plymouth is running from the initramfs, but won't open a new bug report for it, for the above reasons.
