Hi, the warning message is actually displayed directly by Vega and we don't have a way in Kibana to disable it.  
It logically describe that there is an issue with your current vega spec: the Y channel need an extent to render bars, with the filter applied you don't have data and the extent is basically [Infinity, -Infinity]  
I'm checking if this issue will be solved in 7.11 or in a 7.10 patch release, but it depends on vega if this warning can be dismissed or removed completely. Testing it on the latest vega-lite version doesn't seems to result in a warning message, so probably a library update can fix this in a new Kibana release
