[Solved] journalctl arch kernel wl0 errors

I see these two red messages in journalctl after every boot:

arch kernel: wl0: online cpus 1
arch kernel: wl0: link up (wlp2s0)

They must be related to the broadcom-wl-dkms driver that I installed, but the only other mention I can find is in this thread which offers no explanation or resolution.

Is this something to be concerned about? I assume so because they are red!

When outputting to a tty, lines are colored according to priority: lines of level ERROR and higher are colored red; lines of level NOTICE and higher are highlighted; other lines are displayed normally.

Nope. Tell the Broadcom Linux guys they should fix their log messages, it's clearly a lower loglevel, I'd say INFO.

I will submit a patch if it's open source.
