I have working Qlogic 2432 FC with 8.2-STABLE (from November) GENERIC amd64.
I.e. it is the same configurations like yours.

Do you have something special/non-standard in your setup like kernel

Putting ispfw_load="YES" into /boot/loader.conf should be enough to
make isp work
(both device firmware and device isp are already there in GENERIC).
