There's more information about those message in this bug report for Ubuntu:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/671979

Specifically comments #8 and #9.

It looks related to the nvidia card but the solution/bypass is not clear,  
maybe worth reporting at Debian BTS (kernel component).
