Use MUTEX_FSTRANS mutex type

Browse Source 
There are regions in the ZFS code where it is desirable to be able
to be set PF_FSTRANS while a specific mutex is held.  The ZFS code
could be updated to set/clear this flag in all the correct places,
but this is undesirable for a few reasons.

1) It would require changes to a significant amount of the ZFS
   code.  This would complicate applying patches from upstream.

2) It would be easy to accidentally miss a critical region in
   the initial patch or to have an future change introduce a
   new one.

Both of these concerns can be addressed by using a new mutex type
which is responsible for managing PF_FSTRANS, support for which was
added to the SPL in commit zfsonlinux/spl@9099312 - Merge branch
'kmem-rework'.
