than arguing) Coverity found:
o Use open + fstat rather than stat + open to avoid any races for a
file that's static for the life of the system. This will prevent any
problems should someone insert a new device while installing a
kernel in the future.
o Use strlcpy instead of strcpy as a failsafe to knowing that the
strings can't possibly be larger than the buffer due to data
source limits (though in the future these limits might be more
dynamic).
o If we can't find the hints file, return rather than dereference
a NULL pointer.
o Check for lastmod before calling strcmp in case a PNP entry
comes before a module entry. That's not allowed, but within the
realm of crazy things programmers do.
o Free lastmod before exiting search_hints() to avoid a leak.

devmatch(8) matchs up devices in the system device tree with drivers
that may match them. For each unattached device in the system, it
tries to find matching PNP info in the linker hints and prints modules
to load to claim the devices.
In --unbound mode, devmatch can look for drivers that have attached to
devices in the device tree and have plug and play information, but for
which no PNP info exists. This helps find drivers that haven't been
converted yet that are in use on this system.
In addition, the ability to dump out linker.hints is provided.
Future commits will add hooks to devd.conf and rc.d to fully automate
using this information.
