So what is the best way to deal with this? Disabling both axe and
uberry, or disabling usb (I do not want to do that). For axe
it loops failing something like
	axe0: read PHY failed
	axe0: read PHY failed
	axe0: read PHY failed
	axe0: read PHY failed
	axe0: read PHY failed
until the kernel panics out of memory.

Is there no kernel configuration that can be tweaked to make it limp.
I can use always serial console but it is not that appealing.
