OS-specific code (e.g. under `module/os/linux`) does not need to share
its code structure with any other operating systems. In particular, the
ARC and kmem code need not be similar to the code in illumos, because we
won't be syncing this OS-specific code between operating systems. For
example, if/when illumos support is added to the common repo, we would
add a file `module/os/illumos/zfs/arc_os.c` for the illumos versions of
this code.
Therefore, we can simplify the code in the OS-specific ARC and kmem
routines.
These changes do not impact system behavior, they are purely code
cleanup. The changes are:
Arenas are not used on Linux or FreeBSD (they are always `NULL`), so
`heap_arena`, `zio_arena`, and `zio_alloc_arena` can be removed, along
with code that uses them.
In `arc_available_memory()`:
* `desfree` is unused, remove it
* rename `freemem` to avoid conflict with pre-existing `#define`
* remove checks related to arenas
* use units of bytes, rather than converting from bytes to pages and
then back to bytes
`SPL_KMEM_CACHE_REAP` is unused, remove it.
`skc_reap` is unused, remove it.
The `count` argument to `spl_kmem_cache_reap_now()` is unused, remove
it.
`vmem_size()` and associated type and macros are unused, remove them.
In `arc_memory_throttle()`, use a less confusing variable name to store
the result of `arc_free_memory()`.

Closes#10499
The SPL provides a wrapper for the kernel's shrinker callbacks, which
enables the ZFS code to interface with multiple versions of the shrinker
API's from different kernel versions. Specifically, Linux kernels 3.0 -
3.11 has a single "combined" callback, and Linux kernels 3.12 and later
have two "split" callbacks. The SPL provides a wrapper function so that
the ZFS code only needs to implement one version of the callbacks.
Currently the SPL's wrappers are designed such that the ZFS code
implements the older, "combined" callback. There are a few downsides to
this approach:
* The general design within ZFS is for the latest Linux kernel to be
considered the "first class" API.
* The newer, "split" callback API is easier to understand, because each
callback has one purpose.
* The current wrappers do not completely abstract out the differing
API's, so ZFS code needs `#ifdef` code to handle the differing return
values required for different kernel versions.
This commit addresses these drawbacks by having the ZFS code provide the
latest, "split" callbacks, and the SPL provides a wrapping function for
the older, "combined" API.

Closes#10502
ZFS registers a memory hook, `__arc_shrinker_func`, which is supposed to
allow the ARC to shrink when the kernel experiences memory pressure.
The ARC shrinker changes `arc_c` via a call to
`arc_reduce_target_size()`. Before commit 3ec34e5527, the ARC
shrinker would also evict data from the ARC to bring `arc_size` down to
the new `arc_c`. However, that commit (seemingly inadvertently) made it
so that the ARC shrinker no longer evicts any data or waits for eviction
to complete.
Repeated calls to the ARC shrinker can reduce `arc_c` drastically, often
all the way to `arc_c_min`. Since it doesn't wait for the actual
eviction of data from the ARC, this creates a situation where `arc_size`
is more than `arc_c` for the several seconds/minutes it takes for
`arc_adjust_zthr` to evict data from the ARC. During this time,
arc_get_data_impl() will block, so ZFS can't process read/write requests
(e.g. from iSCSI, NFS, or read/write syscalls).
To ensure that `arc_c` doesn't shrink faster than the adjust thread can
keep up, this commit makes the ARC shrinker wait for the eviction to
complete, resulting in similar behavior to what we had before commit
3ec34e5527.
Note: commit 3ec34e5527 is `OpenZFS 9284 - arc_reclaim_thread
has 2 jobs` and was integrated in December 2018, and is part of ZoL
0.8.x but not 0.7.x.
Additionally, when the ARC size is reduced drastically, the
`arc_adjust_zthr` can be on-CPU for many seconds without blocking. Any
threads that are bound to the same CPU that arc_adjust_zthr is running
on will not able to run for a long time.
To ensure that CPU-bound threads can make progress, this commit changes
`arc_evict_state_impl()` make a voluntary preemption call,
`cond_resched()`.

Closes#10155
This change modifies some of the infrastructure for enabling the use of
the DTRACE_PROBE* macros, such that we can use tehm in the "spl" module.
Currently, when the DTRACE_PROBE* macros are used, they get expanded to
create new functions, and these dynamically generated functions become
part of the "zfs" module.
Since the "spl" module does not depend on the "zfs" module, the use of
DTRACE_PROBE* in the "spl" module would result in undefined symbols
being used in the "spl" module. Specifically, DTRACE_PROBE* would turn
into a function call, and the function being called would be a symbol
only contained in the "zfs" module; which results in a linker and/or
runtime error.
Thus, this change adds the necessary logic to the "spl" module, to
mirror the tracing functionality available to the "zfs" module. After
this change, we'll have a "trace_zfs.h" header file which defines the
probes available only to the "zfs" module, and a "trace_spl.h" header
file which defines the probes available only to the "spl" module.
