--- Comment #1 from Conrad Meyer <cem@freebsd.org> ---
This change is not correct.  Nodes are actually in a tree topology and
remove_node() will release parent nodes as it goes, potentially invalidating
the traverse (even with FOREACH_SAFE).

The code could be refactored to mark removed nodes as a first pass, and then
remove them in a second pass (with plain TAILQ_FOREACH_SAFE).  This alterna=
tive
would avoid wasted work for nodes that are never removed (which is probably=
 the
goal of the proposed change), but not break the algorithm.
