Ingo -
You are not alone. I see very similar stuff when I boot a system with a large
number of interfaces. At first it was almost every interface generating the
messages or ones like them, but now with a patch applied (might have come via Jeff?)

hpcpc103:~/linux-2.6.24-rc1# cat /proc/interrupts | grep eth7
hpcpc103:~/linux-2.6.24-rc1#
and if I look at all of /proc/interrupts:
