If I got that on my laptop, I would create 3 PRs. 1) For the autoconfiguration error.2) For the the fact that the device appears to be getting attached to sysmon_envsys(9) even though device configuration failed. 3) For the fact that the system call envstat appears to use a system call that cannot be interrupted.
For #3 run "ps alx" and see if the STAT column for your uninterruptable envstat process has the letter "D" in it. If so, this indicates that the system call is in an uninterruptible state normally associated with short term disk I/O.
