a38718a63d Illumos #734: Use taskq_dispatch_ent() interface
It has been observed that some of the hottest locks are those
of the zio taskqs.  Contention on these locks can limit the
rate at which zios are dispatched which limits performance.

This upstream change from Illumos uses new interface to the
taskqs which allow them to utilize a prealloc'ed taskq_ent_t.
This removes the need to perform an allocation at dispatch
time while holding the contended lock.  This has the effect
of improving system performance.

1e33ac1e26 Fix Solaris thread dependency by using pthreads
This is a portability change which removes the dependence of the Solaris
thread library.  All locations where Solaris thread API was used before
have been replaced with equivilant Solaris kernel style thread calls.
In user space the kernel style threading API is implemented in term of
the portable pthreads library.  This includes all threads, mutexs,
condition variables, reader/writer locks, and taskqs.
