First of all,
Xin: Many thanks for your excellent work on bringing the code up to date.

On top of that, we don't need yet another complication to the already
too-complex retransmission code.
I wasn't aware of Ericsson's submission on this basis. Whilst FreeBSD's
license is recognised by the OSI, the implications of having code in the
kernel which are covered by an Ericsson patent are quite grim if anyone
wishes to use FreeBSD for commercial purposes.
I therefore agree with you that that this change should not go in, and
have removed it from the Wiki.
Kind regards,
BMS
