Running 2.6.29-rc1-next-20090116 on vmware server x86_64 I see this at
boot up. Doesn't appear to cause any problem, no idea what kind of
thermal problem this is causing me on my VM :)

The last linux-next kernel I ran was 2.6.29-rc1-next-20090114 and I do
not remember seeing this. But me not remembering doesn't mean it wasn't
there.....

Any information I can collect or what I can do just let me know.
