Booting 2.6.35-rc1 on a Sun Blade 2500 Red with builtin tg3 I get:

tg3.c:v3.110 (April 9, 2010)
PCI: Enabling device: (0000:00:03.0), cmd 2
...
tg3 0000:00:03.0: vpd r/w failed.  This is likely a firmware bug on this device.  Contact the card vendor for a firmware update.

The three 'vpd r/w failed' messages are new and did not occur with 2.6.34
or earlier kernels.

Mikael I'm getting tired of continuing to add the proper
mailing list CC: for your sparc bug reports.  Please make
sure to add sparclinux@vger.kernel.org to your reports
in the future.

Thanks.

These messages are originating from the PCI layer.  It looks like your
device does not have NVRAM, which is a known issue.  I have an idea on
how to reduce the noise, but let me investigate it a little more before
I commit to it.
