I believe that you have selected in your kernel config to report all amd
cpu errors. I had quite a few of those with an AMD Athlon 1.4G system.
Never had a problem other than the log entry. I've since excluded that
entry, the log warnings no longer appear. That system has been up for
more than a year (other than reboot for kernel upgrades) and has never
locked up nor lost data.
