>Description:
srv/sys/dev/puc/pucdata.c v1.51.2.3 adds support for 6-port Netmos cards to RELENG_6.  The relevant PR is kern/58953.  The commit breaks support for 4-port Netmos cards by incorrectly changing the "NetMos NM9845 Quad UART" puc_devices[] entry.

This applies to v1.51.2.4 (RELENG_6) and v1.52.2.4.2.1 (RELENG_6_4) as well, which have the same entry.  I could not confirm if the same behavior occurs in RELENG_6_4 or RELENG_6 due to lack of boxes running RELENG_6 or RELENG_6_4.
>How-To-Repeat:
Use RELENG_6_3 with a Netmos 4-port card and see puc(4) not attach.
>Fix:
The provided patch against src/sys/dev/puc/pucdata.c v1.51.2.3, taken from a post to freebsd-stable by Marcel Moolenaar on 2008-05-06, fixes the issue.

The patch also succeeds against v1.51.2.4 and v1.51.2.4.2.1 with offset.
