Brian Behlendorf 99c452bbba Fix taskq_wait_id()
The existing taskq_wait_id() function can incorrectly block
indefinitely.  Reimplement it more simply using wait_event()
in a similar fashion to taskq_wait_all().

This flaw was uncovered in the context of moving vn_rdwr() to
a taskq.  Previously taskq_wait_id() had no consumers outside
the SPLAT task framework which is why the issue went unnoticed.

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
