I do not have an answer, but I offer corroboration: I saw it, as well,
after updating my laptop's "head" slice from r367368 to r367410.  (Note
that r367410 is the most recent commit to head when the repository is
updated to r367415.)

In the list of files updated between those commits, I find the following
files updated that have "linux" in their names:

D    /S4/usr/src/sys/amd64/linux/linux_dummy.c
A    /S4/usr/src/sys/amd64/linux/linux_dummy_machdep.c
U    /S4/usr/src/sys/amd64/linux32/linux32_dummy.c
D    /S4/usr/src/sys/arm64/linux/linux_dummy.c
A    /S4/usr/src/sys/arm64/linux/linux_dummy_machdep.c
A    /S4/usr/src/sys/compat/linux/linux_dummy.c
D    /S4/usr/src/sys/i386/linux/linux_dummy.c
A    /S4/usr/src/sys/i386/linux/linux_dummy_machdep.c
U    /S4/usr/src/sys/modules/linux/Makefile
U    /S4/usr/src/sys/modules/linux64/Makefile
U    /S4/usr/src/sys/modules/linux_common/Makefile
A    /S4/usr/src/sys/x86/linux
A    /S4/usr/src/sys/x86/linux/linux_dummy_x86.c

For src/sys/amd64/linux/linux_dummy_machdep.c, the most recent change
is:
