The same happened to me, except that I had "device atapicam"
statically in my kernel config.  When building the new kernel,
linking failed because of missing symbols (ata_controlcmd and
others).

It seems that atapicam is now obsolet and has been replaced by
"options ATA_CAM" which is already present in GENERIC.
Have you tried removing atapicam_load from /boot/loader.conf
(I guess that's where you're trying to load the module)?

Just out of curiosity, why do you prefer SCHED_4BSD?
