This seems remarkably unlikely - perhaps coincidental. Do you have a
network card installed? Perhaps it is finding your PCI network card?

What does /proc/pci say?

What does /proc/interrupts say?

What does /proc/bus/usb/devices say?

"ADMtek Inc. AN986-based USB ethernet NICs including the following:

  SMC 2202USB

CATC USB-EL1210A-based USB ethernet NICs including the following:

  CATC Netmate II

Kawasaki LSI KU5KUSB101B-based USB ethernet NICs including the
following:
  LinkSys USB10T
  Entrega NET-USB-E45
  Peracom USB Ethernet Adapter
  3Com 3c19250
  ADS Technologies USB-10BT
  ATen UC10T
  Netgear EA101
  D-Link DSB-650
  SMC 2102USB
  SMC 2104USB
  Corega USB-T"

So it is not tulip based at all. The AMDtek device is supported (driver
"pegasus") and an alternative pegasus driver and a CATC driver is
available from Donald Becker's site (http://blueraja.scyld.com/usb/). He
has some wierd licensing on the catc.c code.

I think someone was working on the driver for the KLSI device (maybe
even Donald), although it has become very quiet lately. But there is
enough data available to support a driver development, given the
website, the FreeBSD implementation and the pegasus.c example.
