You left out details of the panic and backtrace.

Note that echi(4) states:
BUGS
     The driver is not finished and is quite buggy.

Try adding the following options so you can get backtraces without dumps:
options         KDB
options         KDB_TRACE
options         DDB

Which suggests it needs a quirk of some sort.

I've seen similar behaviour on ulpt as well.  The USB subsystem does
not appear to recover from errors on the hardware side.  In my case,
that USB port wedges and cannot be used until the system is reset
(though other ports are OK).
