There seems to be a small bug in the ips driver. I doesn't relate to the
hang at all, but as I suppose it needs to be fixed anyway.

ips_pci_attach() from dev/ips/ips_pci.c does "goto error;" to make a
cleanup when something goes wrong. There we have

error:
        ips_pci_free(sc);
        return (ENXIO);

ips_pci_free() always calls 

mtx_destroy(&sc->queue_mtx);
sema_destroy(&sc->cmd_sema);

but ips_pci_attach may jump to error: event before queue_mtx gets
initialized. Unfortunately I'm not sure how to fix this in the most
proper way. I suppose it would be nice to check in ips_pci_free() if the
mutex is initialized or not, but I don't know how to implement this
check. Another possible solution is to move initializition before first
"goto error"; So I'm leaving this for the one who knows better.

By the way, shouldn't sc->queue also be freed in ips_pci_free ?
