Sorry for the late response. There have been no sym53c500_cs specific changes to the driver since 2.6.26, so the error very likely still exists upstream, since there are no Debian-related patches. Could you please file this upstream at http://bugzilla.kernel.org and send the bugnumber to this bug log?
