Bruce, good day.

I wanted to stress only one point: simple 'kldunload <driver>' and
'kldload <driver>' makes devices to flip for Yony's case.  This means
that unless some PCI hotplug stuff is here (which I don't believe to be
present, because no physical cards are touched and there is actually a
small amount of PCI hotplug support in FreeBSD), no physical PCI devices
get added or removed from the PCI child tree.  It looks like that
something goes wrong during the PCI tree reprobe on the driver module
loading.

Correct me if I am wrong, but pci_driver_added from /sys/pci/pci.c will
invoke device_get_children() to get the list of the attached devices,
and for PCI case the list should be static.

Here is what I get for the 'kldload if_em' with verbose boot:

And this message is stable across repeated kldunload/kldload.

I guess that when Yony will enable verbose boot and will show us kernel
messages from two successive kldunload/kldload sequences, we will get
some additional information about what's going on.
