This patch conditionalizes a pair of FreeBSD compiler extensions so

Were I work we don't spend much time on compiling any kernel, but I'm
superficially curious about the actual code which necessitates you
needing these different flags. Is this for performance, correctness or
both?
(If you have any sort of reduced code example you can share that would
be great)
From a biased vendor perspective - less lock-in to a single compiler is
usually a good thing. (The linux kernel may be the best example of what
not to do.) Sorry I can't comment on the correctness of the patch.
