I found that NetBSD 9.0-rc1 has the same regressions.

Thanks. As it turned out, I didn't need that patch in order to get 
NetBSD/arc 5.1 working. But I applied the patch anyway after I found that 
a Linux/mips kernel produced DMA errors. But the errors remain (see 
below).

With a few minor Linux patches and a mipsel busybox build, I was able to 
boot to a prompt. ESP SCSI works, but not SONIC ethernet. My dp8393x patch 
series was not sufficient to make ethernet work (no regression though).
