Illumos #4347 ZPL can use dmu_tx_assign(TXG_WAIT)

Fix a lock contention issue by allowing threads not holding
ZPL locks to block when waiting to assign a transaction.

Porting Notes:

zfs_putpage() still uses TXG_NOWAIT, unlike the upstream version.  This
case may be a contention point just like zfs_write(), however it is not
safe to block here since it may be called during memory reclaim.
