I’m not very happy with that first patch.

Can you try 
[https://reviews.freebsd.org/D46615](https://reviews.freebsd.org/D46615) 
and 
[https://reviews.freebsd.org/D46616](https://reviews.freebsd.org/D46616) 
instead?

(That first patch is just cleanup, but you’ll probably want it to 
avoid conflicts.)
