The message talks specifically about OHCI not UHCI.

I notice you don't mention it, and that you have

# CONFIG_APM_ALLOW_INTS is not set

in your kernel config.  From the documentation:

I don't know the current state of play this particular problem.

I've never noticed a lack of people complaining on this List.
If there's a lack, it's of people contributing.

PS: More from the kernel docs on APM:

Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random, "weird" problems:
1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is enabled.
2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass the "no387" option to the 
kernel
4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling all but the first 4 MB of 
RAM)
6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
10) install a better fan for the CPU
11) exchange RAM chips
12) exchange the motherboard.
