I had this too with my toshiba Pentium M notebook (i915).

The problem is that udev is loading wrong modules for the speedstepping.
You need to blacklist them in /etc/rc.conf and load centrino modules from 
the MODULES.
Check out dmesg output for other modules that should be blacklisted because
udev tries to load (with no success) nforce and amd stuff too. 

In my case IIRC it was (I don't have the notebook near me now so I can give you 
the full list later if you want):
acpi-cpufreq
speedstep-ich (speedstep-lib was loaded as a dependency for this module)
cpufreq-nforce2
powernow-k7

After blacklisting these modules and loading centrino modules "manually" as 
I did before upgrade everything worked fine.

The only unexplained thing in my dmesg output is now the message about
disabling irq 20 which is also displayed after udev during boot. I think it 
comes
from the usbcore module but I'm not sure what it is. 
Everything seems to work fine though :-)
