As of Linux commit 9249e17fe094d853d1ef7475dd559a2cc7e23d42 the
mount flags are now passed to sget() so they can be used when
initializing a new superblock.
ZFS never uses sget() in this fashion so we can simply pass a
zero and add a zpl_sget() compatibility wrapper.

Issue #873
The .zfs control directory implementation currently relies on
the fact that there is a direct 1:1 mapping from an object id
to its inode number. This works well as long as the system
uses a 64-bit value to store the inode number.
Unfortunately, the Linux kernel defines the inode number as
an 'unsigned long' type. This means that for 32-bit systems
will only have 32-bit inode numbers but we still have 64-bit
object ids.
This problem is particularly acute for the .zfs directories
which leverage those upper 32-bits. This is done to avoid
conflicting with object ids which are allocated monotonically
starting from 0. This is likely to also be a problem for
datasets on 32-bit systems with more than ~2 billion files.
The right long term fix must remove the simple 1:1 mapping.
Until that's done the only safe thing to do is to disable the
.zfs directory on 32-bit systems.

Because the .zfs ctldir inodes are not backed by physical storage
they use a different create path which was not properly accounting
for them as used. This could result in ->nr_cached_objects()
returning 0 and cause a divide by zero error in prune_super().
In my option there's a kernel bug here too which allows this to
happen. They should either be checking for 0 or adding +1 like
they correctly do earlier in the function.

Closes#617
Add support for the .zfs control directory. This was accomplished
by leveraging as much of the existing ZFS infrastructure as posible
and updating it for Linux as required. The bulk of the core
functionality is now all there with the following limitations.
*) The .zfs/snapshot directory automount support requires a 2.6.37
or newer kernel. The exception is RHEL6.2 which has backported
the d_automount patches.
*) Creating/destroying/renaming snapshots with mkdir/rmdir/mv
in the .zfs/snapshot directory works as expected. However,
this functionality is only available to root until zfs
delegations are finished.
* mkdir - create a snapshot
* rmdir - destroy a snapshot
* mv - rename a snapshot
The following issues are known defeciences, but we expect them to
be addressed by future commits.
*) Add automount support for kernels older the 2.6.37. This should
be possible using follow_link() which is what Linux did before.
*) Accessing the .zfs/snapshot directory via NFS is not yet possible.
The majority of the ground work for this is complete. However,
finishing this work will require resolving some lingering
integration issues with the Linux NFS kernel server.
*) The .zfs/shares directory exists but no futher smb functionality
has yet been implemented.

Closes#173
This code is used for snapshot and heavily leverages Solaris
functionality we do not want to reimplement. These files have
been removed, including references to them, and will be replaced
by a zfs_snap.c/zpl_snap.c implementation which handles snapshots.
The ZFS code is being restructured to act as a library and a stand
alone module. This allows us to leverage most of the existing code
with minimal modification. It also means we need to drop the Solaris
vfs/vnode functions they will be replaced by Linux equivilants and
updated to be Linux friendly.
