I'm inclined to just revert this once again and avoid possibly
breaking yet another platform.

However, I think I would like to see this structured differently. We
basically have 2 ways of matching: the existing pre-3.14 way and the
desired match on best compatible only. All new bindings should match
with the new way and the old way needs to be kept for compatibility.
So lets structure the code that way. Search the match table first for
best compatible with name and type NULL, then search the table the old
way. I realize it appears you are doing this, but it is not clear this
is the intent of the code. I would like to see this written as a patch
with commit 105353145eafb3ea919 reverted first and you add a new match
function to call first and then fallback to the existing function.
