Exactly the same problem appears when running under vmware (at lease
4.6.2-release and 4.7-release, I haven't tried 4.8 yet). The device is lnc0:

lnc0: <PCNet/PCI Ethernet adapter> port 0x1080-0x109f irq 9 at device 16.0
on pci0
lnc0: PCnet-PCI II address 00:50:56:40:b9:98
lnc0: driver is using old-style compatibility shims
