This doesn't really make sense at all... The OFW dumps clearly conflict
with this explanation (i.e. shows another HME device at PCI dev 3, which
NetBSD is for whatever reason not probing).  Also, my explanation is based
on the knowledge that some vendors do use a single serial bus to attach
a set of MAC,PHY devices.
