Hi John,

fdc seems to cause panic on Hyper-V:
https://people.freebsd.org/~sephe/fdc_panic.png

I then commented out device fdc, and I fixed one panic on Hyper-V here:
https://reviews.freebsd.org/D8656

After fdc is disabled and hyperv/storvsc is fixed, it seems to boot
fine, except a long delay (28~30seconds) here:
....
Timecounters tick every 1.000 msec
-----
28 ~ 30 seconds delay
-----
vlan: initialized, using hash tables with chaining
....

I have the bootverbose dmesg here:
https://people.freebsd.org/~sephe/dmesg_earlyap.txt

I booted 10 times, only one boot does not suffer this 30 seconds
delay.  It sounds like some races to me.  Any hints?

Thanks,
sephe
