These messages also happen with 2.6.25, where the MPT Fusion driver worked, so Kurk opened a separate bugzilla, http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11049 for them. Yakui Zhao thinks the messages are harmless because they're related to interrupt link devices that we don't use in IOAPIC mode, and given that the driver works in 2.6.25, that seems plausible to me. Regardless, the messages are alarming and annoying. I'd like to understand them better, but I'll pursue that in the 11049 bugzilla.
