Interesting, about older intel chipsets and graphics (I have few GM45
machines), I had some issues when kernel randomly reportes multiple
warnings, but system still works fine. Maybe it is related,
message/trace starts with this line 
[   45.126000] localhost.localdomain kernel: ------------[ cut here
]------------ [   45.126038] localhost.localdomain kernel: WARNING:
CPU: 1 PID: 1235 at drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_irq.c:1239
i965_irq_handler+0x5a2/0x6b0 [i915]() [   45.126039]
localhost.localdomain kernel: Received HPD interrupt although disabled
(I don't want to post whole output, probably not needed) and when it
happens it show multiple errors related to i915.

And this is fixed in
