Greetings,
 I'm not sure whether this best belonged on net@, or stable@
so I'm using both. :)
I'm testing both releng_9, and MB, and I encountered a new
message I don't usually see using the nfe(4) driver:

miibus0: mii_mediachg: can't handle non-zero PHY instance 1
...
miibus0: mii_mediachg: can't handle non-zero PHY instance 31

Truncated for brevity (31 lines in total; 1-31). I don't know
how interpret this. An issue with my version of the driver, or
the hardware itself? This occurred with both GENERIC, as well
as my custom kernel.

Thank you for all your time, and consideration.
