No need to be worried -- the messages just indicate that
the IDE driver was suprised that one of the "paranoia" tests
actually caught a bug -- it recovers safely from the situation.

First report I've had of it happening, though.. dunno what the
cause might be. I'll look for it. Must be due to the PCI overhaul
that somebody did in 2.1.93.
