Log:
  Document r226775: tell why we omit usbus[0-9]+
  
  tcpdump can capture packet traces from the usb bus. usbus[0-9] are
  registered as ifnet devices so this can work. When these devices come
  up, devd was trying to run pccard_ether on those interfaces, which
  didn't exist and generated an error.
