I see the following in /proc/interrupts

 55:          0          0          0     338331   PCI-MSI-edge      lan0-rx-0
 56:          0          0          0       2664   PCI-MSI-edge      lan0-tx-0
 57:      47230          0          0          0   PCI-MSI-edge      lan0
 58:        427          0          0          0   PCI-MSI-edge      �
 59:          0        277          0          0   PCI-MSI-edge      �����������
 60:          0          4          0          0   PCI-MSI-edge      lan1

Notice the corrupt entries for IRQs 58 and 59. Sometimes 55 and 56 are corrupt as well. Any idea why this is happening? I am running Fedora Core 12.
