I saw a similar problem when I upgraded from 3.4-RELEASE to 5.0-CURRENT.
My ep card started fine under 3.4, but choked with the eeprom messages when
booting my new current kernel.  I was able to get my card working by booting
into the kernel configuration tool (boot -c) and disabling all of the other
network devices which were compiled in.  (This was with a generic kernel.)
Once I had done that, the ep driver was able to work with my card.

(Strangely enough, the ep driver doesn't appear anywhere in the kernel config
screen.)
