I just tried the new kernel (4.x-stable) with fxp on miibus and it failed for a genuine, pci, non-miibus fxp! Strange thing is that it pings itself fine but it never pings out. What I found out was that old config file works even with new sources.

You should also consider using a different name for fxp under miibus, like de versus dc.
