The differ() function used strerror_r() instead of strerror() because
it allowed the error message to be directly copied in to a buffer.
This causes two issues under Linux.
* There are two versions of strerror_r() available an XSI-compliant
version which returns an 'int' error code. And a GNU-specific
version which return a 'char *' to the resulting error string.
int strerror_r(int errnum, char *buf, size_t buflen); /* XSI */
char *strerror_r(int errnum, char *buf, size_t buflen); /* GNU */
* The most recent versions of strerror_r() are annotated with the
warn_unused_result attribute. This causes the following warning
since the upstream implementation casts the result to void.
warning: ignoring return value of 'strerror_r', declared with
attribute warn_unused_result [-Wunused-result]
The cleanest way to resolve both of these problems is just to use
strerror() and make a copy of the result in to the buffer. This
resolves both issues and this is the only instance of strerror_r()
in the code base.

In the stream_bytes() library function used by `zfs diff`, explicitly
cast each byte in the input string to an unsigned character so that the
Linux fprintf() correctly escapes to octal and does not mangle the output.

This branch contains the majority of the changes required to cleanly
intergrate with Linux style special devices (/dev/zfs). Mainly this
means dropping all the Solaris style callbacks and replacing them
with the Linux equivilants.
This patch also adds the onexit infrastructure needed to track
some minimal state between ioctls. Under Linux it would be easy
to do this simply using the file->private_data. But under Solaris
they apparent need to pass the file descriptor as part of the ioctl
data and then perform a lookup in the kernel. Once again to keep
code change to a minimum I've implemented the Solaris solution.
