Interrupt mitigation inserts a (configurable) delay between the
processing of a packet by the interface and the delivery of the
associated interrupt, optimizing for the case of the interface
being able to receiving a few more quick packets from the wire
which the driver then could dispatch in a single interrupt.
(See around line 990 of if_sk.c.)

Your problem is not related to this.  For some reason the
control/status registers cannot be mapped into memory space;
the chip apparently supports mapping those into I/O space
using a different base address register in its PCI config
space, but at a glance at least the mapping part of that
code path (look for SK_USEIOSPACE) seems incomplete.
