I think Warner L. was referring to ( I looked at UPDATING
from head -r335812 but this entry is older ):

20180530:
        The kernel / userland interface for devinfo changed, so you'll
        need a new kernel and userland as a pair for it to work =
(rebuilding
        lib/libdevinfo is all that's required). devinfo and devmatch =
will
        not work, but everything else will when there's a mismatch.

If I understand right, having devinfo and devmatch not working is
not necessarily a status of being fundamentally broken overall.
(Just less automatic?) But I've never had to deal with the messages.
