Your patch appears to be an excerpt from the fix to RELENG_5. May I suggest a different approach for RELENG_4? My reasoning is that the implementation of kevents differs between RELENG_4 and RELENG_5.
In RELENG_5 the flag KN_DETACHED is used in a more general way. It gets set by knlist_add() and cleared by knlist_remove(), in sync with list insertion and removal.

Slight correction: The logic is of course the other way round. That is, the text is supposed to read:
It gets cleared by knlist_add() and set by knlist_remove() ...
Sorry about that. :-)
