Description Steven Friedrich 2021-03-10 18:31:47 UTC 
I believe this belongs to devd.
I believe this anomaly is described in /usr/src/UPDATING
20180211:
	devmatch functionality has been turned on in devd. It will automatically
	load drivers for unattached devices. This may cause unexpected drivers to
	be loaded. Please report any problems to current@ and imp@freebsd.org.

I have sent it to current@ and imp#

This appears in dmesg if Netgear A6100 plugged in at boot
Starting devd.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  
Cannot 'start' webcamd. Set webcamd_enable to YES in /etc/rc.conf or use 'onestart' instead of 'start'.
I don't HAVE or want a webcam. This is an anomaly.  The webcam port is present because I installed KDE.  But I have no use for it.

Here's the device as reported by lsusb
