I work with different kernels and I face similar issues occasionally.
Looks like you have somehow intermixed modules for old and new kernel.
Please check against which version of kernel each of your module is
compiled (including firmware), then replace old ones.
I recently posted a simple 'kldinfo' tool for that purpose, you can get
it from https://github.com/pointcheck/kldinfo.git
Example from my laptop running 13.5:
% kldinfo /boot/modules/amdgpu_green_sardine_sdma_bin.ko
MODULE: amdgpu_green_sardine_sdma_bin_fw DEPENDS: kernel
VERSION: 1305000 1305000 1399999
MODULE: amdgpu_green_sardine_sdma_bin_fw DEPENDS: firmware
VERSION: 1 1 1
kldinfo: found 2 dependencies in
/boot/modules/amdgpu_green_sardine_sdma_bin.ko
Hope this helps.
