[Redirected to -current_at_, I think this is more suitable for -current_at_ or -scsi_at_] It seems that RELENG_7 carries a newer version of driver, so I guess the problem should have been resolved. Part of changes were MFC'ed 5 months ago to RELENG_6, so you may also want to try a RELENG_6 snapshot from: http://www.freebsd.org/snapshots/ In order to verify if it resolves your problem. Let us know if the problem still persists.
