`getfsstat(2)` is used to retrieve the list of mounted file systems,
which libzfs uses when fetching properties like mountpoint, atime,
setuid, etc. The `mode` parameter may be `MNT_NOWAIT`, which uses
information in the VFS's cache, or `MNT_WAIT`, which effectively does a
`statfs` on every single mounted file system in order to fetch the most
up-to-date information. As far as I can tell, the only fields that
libzfs cares about are the filesystem's name, mountpoint, fstypename,
and mount flags. Those things are always updated on mount and unmount,
so they will always be accurate in the VFS's mount cache except in two
circumstances:
1) When a file system is busy unmounting
2) When a ZFS file system changes the value of a mount-overridable
property like atime or setuid, but doesn't remount the file system.
Right now that only happens when the property is changed by an
unprivileged user who has delegated authority to change the property
but not to mount the dataset. But perhaps libzfs could choose to do
it for other reasons in the future.
Switching to `MNT_NOWAIT` will greatly improve speed with no downside,
as long as we explicitly update the mount cache whenever we change a
mount-overridable property.
For comparison, Illumos gets this information using the native
`getmntany` and `getmntent` functions, which also use cached
information. The illumos function that would refresh the cache,
`resetmnttab`, is never called by libzfs.
And on GNU/Linux, `getmntany` and `getmntent` don't even communicate
with the kernel directly. They simply parse the file they are given,
which is usually /etc/mtab or /proc/mounts. Perhaps the implementation
of /proc/mounts is synchronous, ala MNT_WAIT; I don't know.

On Linux increase the maximum allowed size of the src nvlist which
can be passed to the /dev/zfs ioctl. Originally, this was set
to a maximum of KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE (4M) because it was kmalloc'd.
Since that time it's been converted to a vmalloc so that's no
longer a hard limit, and it's desirable for `zfs send/recv` to
allow larger nvlists so more snapshots can be sent at once.

We limit the size of nvlists passed to the kernel so a user cannot make
the kernel do an unreasonably large allocation. On FreeBSD this limit
was 128 kiB, which turns out to be a bit too small when doing some
operations involving a large number of datasets or snapshots, for
example replication.
Make this limit tunable, with a platform-specific auto default.
Linux keeps its limit at KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE. FreeBSD uses 1/4 of the
system limit on user wired memory, which allows it to scale depending
on system configuration.

Issue #6572Closes#10706
Linux and FreeBSD will most likely never see this issue.
On macOS when kext is unloaded, but zed is still connected, zed
will be issued ENODEV. As the cdevsw is released, the kernel
will not have zfsdev_release() called to release minor/onexit/events,
and it "leaks". This ensures it is cleaned up before unload.
Changed the for loop from zsprev, to zsnext style, for less
code duplication.

In Illumos it is possible to call ioctl functions from within the
kernel by passing the FKIOCTL flag. Neither FreeBSD nor Linux support
that, but it doesn't hurt to keep it around, as all the code is there.
Before this commit it was a dead code and zc_iflags was always zero.
Restore this functionality by allowing to pass a flag to the
zfsdev_ioctl_common() function.

platforms to perform normal file access from either the kernel module
or the libzpool library.
This allows all non-portable vnode_t usage in the common code to be
replaced by the new portable zfs_file_t. The associated vnode and
kobj compatibility functions, types, and macros have been removed
from the SPL. Moving forward, vnodes should only be used in platform
specific code when provided by the native operating system.
