Can you to reproduce issue with below mentioned changes..

In mps.c 

mps_get_tunables(struct mps_softc *sc)
{
    char tmpstr[80];
 
    /* XXX default to some debugging for now */
    sc->mps_debug = MPS_FAULT;

Instead of above line make
    sc->mps_debug = 0xd;


This will dump debug prints on screen at the time of boot itself.
