I started seeing this behavior also, but it started when I swapped drives from a dead 
Via dual chipset board machine (MSI 694D Pro, I think) into an athlon machine with an 
Asus A7Vsomething. I can get correct model numbers, etc. if helpful. This is a 
4.8-RELEASE installation. I had to reboot the first time with an old 4.4 GENERIC 
leftover from installation, and I saw no errors, but after compiling a uniprocessor 
kernel I started seeing the above behavior. Although, I left it for awhile and 
eventually the machine does boot after about 30 of the MODE_SENSE_BIG, resetting 
devices lines.
