Got the vaxstation 3100m76 up and running, with a standard netbsd-9 or
-current kernel it has the same kernel panic when probing the scsi bus,
with the patch everything is fine and not only the system will boot
without problem but was able to complete an installation of netbsd-9,
standard installation with sysinst, no manual intervention required, the
system is working good.

I'm tempeted to try on my microvax 3100m30 (ka45) and also on a
vaxstation 2000 (ka410), to see if this two system is also affected by
that bug.
