When a single pool contains more vdevs than the CONFIG_HZ for
for the kernel the mmp thread will not delay properly. Switch
to using cv_timedwait_sig_hires() to handle higher resolution
delays.
This issue was reported on Arch Linux where HZ defaults to only
100 and this could be fairly easily reproduced with a reasonably
large pool. Most distribution kernels set CONFIG_HZ=250 or
CONFIG_HZ=1000 and thus are unlikely to be impacted.

When multihost is disabled on a pool, and the pool is resumed via zpool
clear, within a single cycle of the mmp thread's loop (e.g. while it's
in the cv_timedwait call), both mmp_last_write and mmp_delay should be
updated.
The original code mistakenly treated the two cases as if they could not
occur at the same time.

Once per pass through the MMP thread's loop, the vdev tree is walked to
find a suitable leaf to write the next MMP block to. If no such leaf is
found, the thread sleeps for a while and resumes at the top of the loop.
Add an entry to multihost_history when no leaf can be found, and record
the reason in the error column. The error code for such entries is a
bitfield, displayed in hex:
0x1 At least one vdev (interior or leaf) was not writeable.
0x2 At least one writeable leaf vdev was found, but it had a pending
MMP write.
timestamp = the time in seconds since the epoch when no leaf could be
found originally.
duration = the time (in ns) during which no MMP block was written for
this reason. This does not include the preceeding inter-write period
nor the following inter-write period.
vdev_guid = the number of sequential cycles of the MMP thread looop when
this occurred.
Sample output, truncated to fit:
For records of skipped MMP writes the right-most column, vdev_path, is
reported as "-".

If something holds the config lock as a writer for too long, MMP will
fail to issue MMP writes in a timely manner. This will result either in
the pool being suspended, or in an extreme case, in the pool not being
protected.
If the time to acquire the config lock exceeds 1/10 of the minimum
zfs_multihost_interval, report it in the zfs debug log.

Rename it as mmp_random_leaf() since it is defined in mmp.c.
The earlier implementation could end up spinning forever if a pool had a
vdev marked writeable, none of whose children were writeable. It also
did not guarantee that if a writeable leaf vdev existed, it would be
found.
Reimplement to recursively walk the device tree to select the leaf. It
searches the entire tree, so that a return value of (NULL) indicates
there were no usable leaves in the pool; all were either not writeable
or had pending mmp writes.
It still chooses the starting child randomly at each level of the tree,
so if the pool's devices are healthy, the mmp writes go to random leaves
with an even distribution. This was verified by testing using
zfs_multihost_history enabled.

* Simplify threads, mutexs, cvs and rwlocks
* Update the zk_thread_create() function to use the same trick
as Illumos. Specifically, cast the new pthread_t to a void
pointer and return that as the kthread_t *. This avoids the
issues associated with managing a wrapper structure and is
safe as long as the callers never attempt to dereference it.
* Update all function prototypes passed to pthread_create() to
match the expected prototype. We were getting away this with
before since the function were explicitly cast.
* Replaced direct zk_thread_create() calls with thread_create()
for code consistency. All consumers of libzpool now use the
proper wrappers.
* The mutex_held() calls were converted to MUTEX_HELD().
* Removed all mutex_owner() calls and retired the interface.
Instead use MUTEX_HELD() which provides the same information
and allows the implementation details to be hidden. In this
case the use of the pthread_equals() function.
* The kthread_t, kmutex_t, krwlock_t, and krwlock_t types had
any non essential fields removed. In the case of kthread_t
and kcondvar_t they could be directly typedef'd to pthread_t
and pthread_cond_t respectively.
* Removed all extra ASSERTS from the thread, mutex, rwlock, and
cv wrapper functions. In practice, pthreads already provides
the vast majority of checks as long as we check the return
code. Removing this code from our wrappers help readability.
* Added TS_JOINABLE state flag to pass to request a joinable rather
than detached thread. This isn't a standard thread_create() state
but it's the least invasive way to pass this information and is
only used by ztest.

Add a callback to wake all running mmp threads when
zfs_multihost_interval is changed.
This is necessary when the interval is changed from a very large value
to a significantly lower one, while pools are imported that have the
multihost property enabled.
Without this commit, the mmp thread does not wake up and detect the new
interval until after it has waited the old multihost interval time. A
user monitoring mmp writes via the provided kstat would be led to
believe that the changed setting did not work.
Added a test in the ZTS under mmp to verify the new functionality is
working.
Added a test to ztest which starts and stops mmp threads, and calls into
the code to signal sleeping mmp threads, to test for deadlocks or
similar locking issues.

The config lock must be held for the duration of the MMP write.
Since the I/Os are executed via map_nowait(), the done function
is the only place where we know the write has completed.
Since SCL_STATE is taken as reader, overlapping I/Os do not
create a deadlock. The refcount is simply increased when new
I/Os are queued and decreased when I/Os complete.
Test case added which exercises the probe IO call path to
verify the fix and prevent a regression.

Add multihost=on|off pool property to control MMP. When enabled
a new thread writes uberblocks to the last slot in each label, at a
set frequency, to indicate to other hosts the pool is actively imported.
These uberblocks are the last synced uberblock with an updated
timestamp. Property defaults to off.
During tryimport, find the "best" uberblock (newest txg and timestamp)
repeatedly, checking for change in the found uberblock. Include the
results of the activity test in the config returned by tryimport.
These results are reported to user in "zpool import".
Allow the user to control the period between MMP writes, and the
duration of the activity test on import, via a new module parameter
zfs_multihost_interval. The period is specified in milliseconds. The
activity test duration is calculated from this value, and from the
mmp_delay in the "best" uberblock found initially.
Add a kstat interface to export statistics about Multiple Modifier
Protection (MMP) updates. Include the last synced txg number, the
timestamp, the delay since the last MMP update, the VDEV GUID, the VDEV
label that received the last MMP update, and the VDEV path. Abbreviated
