I too am seeing this in my emacs config in enh-ruby-mode. If I change
auto-save-interval to 0, it stops. So it appears that the
auto-save-interval is somehow broken.

I wonder if adbb4eacc2a984c0fc0b65ec761368fd9067d6c5 is related?

There was a change to force_auto_save_soon including a deletion of
code that had a comment indicating the code wasn't fully understood at
some point:

-  /* FIXME: What's the relationship between forcing auto-save and adding
-     a buffer-switch event?  */
-  record_asynch_buffer_change ();
