Tim Chase 5c7a0369e2 Fix --enable-debug-kmem-tracking option
Re-order initialization in spl_kmem_init to allow for kmem tracing
to work.  The spl_kmem_init function calls taskq_create prior to
initializing the tracking (calling spl_kmem_init_tracking).  Since
taskq_create uses kmem_alloc, NULL dereferences occur because the
global kmem_list hasn't had its next & prev pointers initialized yet.

This commit moves the calls to spl_kmem_init_tracking earlier in the
spl_kmem_init function in order that the subsequent kmem_alloc calls
(by taskq_create) work properly.

The Solaris Porting Layer (SPL) is a Linux kernel module which provides many of the Solaris kernel APIs. This shim layer makes it possible to run Solaris kernel code in the Linux kernel with relatively minimal modification. This can be particularly useful when you want to track upstream Solaris development closely and dont want the overhead of maintaining a large patch which converts Solaris primitives to Linux primitives.

To build packages for your distribution:

$ ./configure
$ make pkg

To copy the kernel code inside your kernel source tree for builtin compilation:

$ ./configure --enable-linux-builtin --with-linux=/usr/src/linux-...
$ ./copy-builtin /usr/src/linux-...

Full documentation for building, configuring, and using the SPL can be found at: http://zfsonlinux.org
