Hm, your PCI configuration says it's a 929X?  And its chip id seems to
be 0x0626, which isn't present in sys/dev/mpt/mpt_pci.c...  For some
reason it was left out in the "massive overhaul" around revision 1.20?

Maybe you can apply a diff similar to the following (which was done
for the RELENG_4_11 branch):
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sys/dev/mpt/mpt_pci.c.diff?r1=1.3.2.3&r2=1.3.2.3.10.1&f=h

It looks like simply adding the required PCI id, adding a case in
mpt_pci_probe, and some minor other things.  Can you try the attached
patch?  Since I'm doing this *completely* blind, YMMV, but please let
us know how it goes.  A dmesg would be nice! ;)

This isn't needed, the mpt driver is statically linked in the GENERIC
kernel (assuming you're using that).
