Thanks.

If you see two lines that are identical, please do not abbreviate to a 
single line.

Each line has meaning.

Your running kernel (r) is now as it should be.

It's most likely that you had previously used freebsd-update, but 
omitted a critical step: the restart of the operating system.

For userland (u), patch level 7 is correct.

<https://bokut.in/freebsd-patch-level-table/#releng/12.3> may help to 
understand things.

freebsd-version(1)
