Are those messages new (only started after the kernel update?)

yes, they are. With 2.6.20-1.2933.fc6 it works fine. Here the output from lcpci,
may be it helps:

Does shutting down, then turning the power off for a while, then powering up
make the problem go away?

Is wake-on-LAN enabled? If so can it be disbled somehow?

quirk_e100_interrupt?

Mental note: quirk_e100_interrupt has been there all along, maybe some other
change started triggering it?

In addition to full power off, can you test if resetting the configuration CMOS
in the BIOS cures the problem (maybe only temporarily?)
