This message comes from this code in drivers/mtd/maps/ck804xrom.c:
        /*
         * Try to reserve the window mem region.  If this fails then
         * it is likely due to a fragment of the window being
         * "reserved" by the BIOS.  In the case that the
         * request_mem_region() fails then once the rom size is
         * discovered we will try to reserve the unreserved fragment.
         */
        window->rsrc.name = MOD_NAME;
        window->rsrc.start = window->phys;
        window->rsrc.end   = window->phys + window->size - 1;
        window->rsrc.flags = IORESOURCE_MEM | IORESOURCE_BUSY;
        if (request_resource(&iomem_resource, &window->rsrc)) {
                window->rsrc.parent = NULL;
                printk(KERN_ERR MOD_NAME
                        " %s(): Unable to register resource"
                        " 0x%.016llx-0x%.016llx - kernel bug?\n",
                        __func__,
                        (unsigned long long)window->rsrc.start,
                        (unsigned long long)window->rsrc.end);
        }

So it's probably harmless.
