I missed something like that in the past too and I will miss it in the 
future. And I'm sure that I have some on master that are not on 
6-freebsd-12. So no problem. Just wanted to check that there is no other 
reason.

By the way: Please tell me if you find patches that I missed ;-)

Most of it most likely is the same. But there are differences. Some of 
them might shouldn't be there but they are there. Try to checkout master 
and do a

    git diff 6-freebsd-12 -- rtemsbsd/

I don't think that someone wants to clean that up on an update.

Best regards
