We had this on the list a month or so ago. If you're not running a
multiprocessor rig, this one can likely be considered "mostly harmles"
;-) IIRC, there was no specific reason for the message and no one
experienced any corrupted data or system instability.
If you're a hacker and/or got a little more in-depth knowledge, grep the
kernel sources for the message (without interrupt number), there's a
comment about it.
