I do not want to miss something that may be important. The difference I
see in linux 3.2.0-38 and later kernels is the error happening in a loop
in the later versions.

I do not use the desktop. I boot to the console and then startx. I do
not need the desktop and often run without X.

An additional note, the error message is presented on all kernel
versions I have tested.

However, with ubuntu 12.04 and linux 3.2.0-38-generic, the message is
presented one time and then stops when the console login prompt is
presented.

With all later versions of the kernel, the error message is presented in
a loop and makes the machine performance very sluggish, slinky
scrolling, etc.

The following combination presents the error message one time and then
stops.
