No, its not broken. There are a certain modules which get loaded by default
from /etc/modules. Then later when hotplug starts up its hardware probe it
tries to load the corresponding module, but finds that its already loaded
and print that message. If you don't want that message, don't allow the
kernel to load that particular module.

Its working as designed.
