 The mps(4) driver is just broken.  9.2 includes a fix that if your BIOS 
 writers can't do simple math and allocate conflicting resources, it disables 
 decoding of the device where it finds the conflict.  Later if a device driver 
 expicitly asks to use that resource, the PCI bus will allocate a fresh 
 resource range that doesn't conflict if possible.  If it suceeds it re-enables 
 decoding.  The mps(4) driver checks to see if decoding is enabled before it 
 calls bus_alloc_resource().  It should not.  It should assume that if 
 bus_alloc_resource() succeeds, everything is fine and decoding will be 
 enabled.  Try this fix:
