Latest 9.2-RELEASE-p5 update keeps wanting to install /boot/kernel/linker.hints

[Reed A. Cartwright]

I did this to fix it:

mv /boot/kernel/linker.hints /tmp
freebsd-update fetch
freebsd-update install

Now if you already updated and freebsd-update doesn't want to do it
again you can try

mv /boot/kernel/linker.hints /tmp
freebsd-update rollback
freebsd-update fetch
freebsd-update install
