cat /proc/interrupts and see what it says(post output to the list
if you want).
One thing to try, if something is sharing irq50 with another
device, if that device is an expansion card then try moving
that expansion card to another slot in the system.
For the system I am on for reference:

Nothing sharing irq 50 on this machine, though irq 169 is being
shared by both my Nvidia video card and a 4-port USB expansion
card.
The kernel source code describes the error as this:
* If 99,900 of the previous 100,000 interrupts have not been handled
* then assume that the IRQ is stuck in some manner. Drop a diagnostic
* and try to turn the IRQ off.
*
* (The other 100-of-100,000 interrupts may have been a correctly
* functioning device sharing an IRQ with the failing one)
So sounds hardware related. Whether it's the board itself
or an add-in card I'm not sure. If possible remove all
add-in cards that you can to see if the issue goes away.
Also disable all devices in the BIOS that your not using
(secondary IDE ports, serial ports, parallel ports etc), just
to rule those out.
Of the roughly 1200 systems I've run with linux over the
years I never recall encountering this message.
