If you don't need USB I'd just leave usb disabled (I'm assuming you disabled it in the BIOS)... but if you do need it you have a few options... You could play with the BIOS settings (legacy mode, etc etc). You could disable the extra usb controllers in freebsd (or something like that). Or you could apply the kernel patch (kern/72492) to your system. I'd play with the BIOS settings first and if that didn't work I'd do the patch because it looks like a relatively strait foreword and simple fix: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=72492 If you have anymore questions about this subject I'd post them to the freebsd-questions mailing list and not here as they will be more competent at answering your technical questions then newbies helping newbies.
