It looks like so. BIOS mentions IRQ for each UART, but vmstat -i
shows only irq3 for uart0 and uart2 but no irq4 for uart1 and uart3
(dmesg and BIOS says about irq4 for them).
Maybe, device.hints helps? I'll try it. It looks like uart(4) can not
communicate well with ACPI.
How to switch polled mode? man uart(4) doesn't mention "poll" at all.

Fortunately, I don't need VGA after first installation :)
But serial console will be nice.
