UPDATING only mentions VMM stuff for COMPAT_FREEBSD14. I give this a try tomorrow. But would this also affect the zfs dataset stuff?

This thread could have been a simple UPDATING update.  I think this is the 
fourth
time or so I have run into problems, because the changes were not explained.

UPDATING entry on VMM got only there after I've spent 2 days+ troubleshooting
my wifibox failures.

When I read your message I was immediately thinking you might need 
"COMPAT_FREEBSD14",
but, again, I couldn't find any obvious entry neither in the docs nor in
the git log I was looking at.

@glebus - maybe during the stabilization effort the changes done to the tree
could be reviewed and documented?

 - where the FreeBSD_version got bumped and why
 - ABI changes
 - ....

For example it could be useful to be able to find the information "what
does COMPAT_FREEBSD14 do exactly" in the UPDATING/release notes file.
Otherwise I can't be sure if I need that option or "is my system fresh enough"
to remove it from the kernel.
