According to your 2.6.22 dmesg, this happens a while after the firewire
subsystem seemingly successfully initialized the controller. Could you
please post "dmesg | grep firewire" from 2.6.25-rc6 though?

The __report_bad_irq() and "Disabling IRQ #..." can only have happened
because this condition in fw-ohci.c::irq_handler()

event = reg_read(ohci, OHCI1394_IntEventClear);

if (!event || !~event)
return IRQ_NONE;

happened a lot of times. This means either
- Some MMIO reads return bogus values (all zero or all ones in a
bitfield which should be sparsely populated in a proper interrupt
event),
or
- the interrupt was misrouted by the kernel's IRQ infrastructure was
unable to detect the misrouting, AFAIU.
