It's very likely you are plagued w/ non-standard PCI cards...
I assume you mean Nov 7th? If so, there was fix committed for more
normal bad VPD data (v1.321 of sys/dev/pci/pci.c)...
There is still an outstanding bug of a device that doesn't even properly
handle VPD accesses and it hang waiting for a bit to clear... I need
to inspect the patch closer before committing..
