The issue has already been investigated and kettenis@ committed a fix during
n2k10. However, the fix that allowed these servers to work happened to break
other systems that were previously working, hence the change was backed out.
I believe that an alternate fix is being worked on, however if you want to
use this hardware in the meantime you can revert dev/pci/pci.c to r1.72.
