The new driver for PMC Sierra SAS/SATA HBAs does not properly validate
that both the vendor ID and device ID of some storage device drivers.
At present, we know there is a conflict with ahd(4), it is possible
there are more.

The issue was reported on the -current@ mailing list in this thread:

If you are running 10.2-RC1, you should be unaffected when upgrading to
10.2-RC2.  If you are running 10.2-BETA2 or prior (and 10.2-PRERELEASE
prior to the releng/10.2 branch), please exercise caution when upgrading
to the latest stable/10 or releng/10.2 if your storage controller
matches any of the following PCI device IDs:

The resolution to this issue is still being investigated, and is
considered a blocker for the 10.2-RELEASE, which means it is now quite
likely there will be an -RC3 for this release.

Thank you for your patience while this issue is being resolved.
