BSD uses port-specific driver flags, so changing them requires a
reboot.

>From sio(4):

     For standard ISA ports:
	   device sio

	   In /boot/device.hints:
	   hint.sio.0.at="isa"
	   hint.sio.0.port="0x3f8"
	   hint.sio.0.flags="0x10"
	   hint.sio.0.irq="4"
	   hint.sio.1.at="isa"
	   hint.sio.1.port="0x2f8"
	   hint.sio.1.flags="0x0"
	   hint.sio.1.irq="3"
[...]
     Meaning of flags:
	   0x00001   shared IRQs
	   0x00002   disable FIFO
[...]

It is important that the setting is port-specific, not global.
