huh, really weird, as on my RPi-3-b I get these set correctly and I 
don't any such warning.

I am even checking the ret value here, so if it can't set it, it will 
log an error. I don't that getting logged on my end. Can you share you 
entire dmesg output please?

Also, I have tested this against arm64 kernel, I assume you are using 
32-bit?
