It's possible that the errors you're getting are caused by some other
device erroneously generating interrupt requests on IRQ 21.  Then when
uhci-hcd enables that IRQ, there's no driver available to handle the 
interrupts...

It's also possible that the UHCI controllers are generating the unwanted 
interrupt requests.  You should make sure that Legacy USB Support is 
turned off in your BIOS settings.  You can also try adding the 
"usb-handoff" kernel parameter to your boot command line.
