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?

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.
