i believe IRQ7 is a tad overloaded here. Do you see any system instability when the spurious IRQ message appears? The parallel port and the sound card are both using IRQ7. Plus IRQ7 is the IRQ for the motherboard to report spurious interrupts (it's a bit more complex than this but thats the gist of it).
but still, i do not yet understand why this happens now and didnt happen with earlier kernels, hm.
