svn commit: r344648 - in head: . sys/kern sys/sys

[Kevin Bowling]

The vast majority of contributors don't enjoy nit-picking on these
trivialities. If the broader developer community is not rallying for
the revert and some core conspiracy doesn't care about it either, that
forms the de facto opinion of the FreeBSD community of today that this
is trivial and irrelevant.

Yes, there is vocal absolutism on the fringes about SHALLS and MUSTS
about all sorts of things aside from modernizing FreeBSD and making it
viable on current generation hardware.  These parties might be happier
and better aligned with OpenBSD ideologically as well as
personalities.

Regards,
Kevin
