The bfe (Broadcom BCM4401 10/100 Ethernet) driver has known bugs and no
active maintenance. There have been no changes other than sweeping tree
changes, typo corrections etc. since 2008 a far as I can tell. Add a
note in the man page so that users expectations are correctly set, and
indicate that it may be removed in the future.
I did not add a gone_in() call in the driver itself as there is no
specific target version for removal, and this driver has evidence of
recent use (dmesg, PRs).

gVNIC is a virtual network interface designed specifically for
Google Compute Engine (GCE). It is required to support per-VM Tier_1
networking performance, and for using certain VM shapes on GCE.
The NIC supports TSO, Rx and Tx checksum offloads, and RSS.
It does not currently do hardware LRO, and thus the software-LRO
in the host is used instead. It also supports jumbo frames.
For each queue, the driver negotiates a set of pages with the NIC to
serve as a fixed bounce buffer, this precludes the use of iflib.

It is nice to have, however, the location of this information means that
it will naturally be missed by developers adding or removing directories
to the layout, so it trends out-of-date and it is out-of-date.
The target audience for hier(7) is users and administrators. It is not
expected to be a place that programmers should go to learn about the
purposes of the different C headers provided by FreeBSD.
Program authors needing FreeBSD-specific interfaces or libraries
(#include <sys/queue.h>, for instance) will either be following a more
detailed man page, or consulting the header contents directly. Folks
targeting standardized headers (#include <sys/time.h>) will not need
hier(7) to tell them where those headers are under /usr/include.
In other words, this is more detail than necessary for this document.
I'd go as far as to say that many of the existing entries in this list
do little more than parrot the name of the directory.
With all this in mind, let's drop the maintenance burden.
