Hello,

I tried to upgrade today an old laptop (Compaq Armada 3500), from a
Jan 29 RELENG_6 to a Feb 19 RELENG_6

As a result of the make installkernel, my Netgear FA5111 card is
inoperative, and the dmesg shows:

dc0: <Netgear FA511 10/100BaseTX> port 0x1030-0x112f
   mem 0x88000000-0x880003FF at device 0.0 on cardbus1
dc0: MII without any PHY!
device_attach: dc0 attach returned 6

(Note: no irq)

instead of:

carbus1: Ressource not specified in CIS: id=10, size=100
carbus1: Ressource not specified in CIS: id=14, size=100
dc0: <Netgear FA511 10/100BaseTX> port 0x1100-0x11ff
   mem 0x88000000-0x880003FF irq 11 at device 0.0 on cardbus1
miibus0: <MII bus> on dc0
ukphy0: <Generic IEEE 802.3u media interface> on miibus0
ukphy0:  10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, auto
dc0: Ethernet address: ...
dc0: [GIANT-LOCKED]

Switching for an (older) Xircom CreditCard Ethernet 10/100 succeeds,
this xe0 card being detected on pccard1 (not cardbus1)

This problem seems to be a consequence of the changes made to
sys/dev/cardbus/,sys/dev/pci/ on Jan 30.

If needed, do not hesitate to ask me for more tests/infos

TIA
