Ned Bass d877ac6bfe Fix intermittent 'zpool add' failures
Creating whole-disk vdevs can intermittently fail if a udev-managed symlink to
the disk partition is already in place.  To avoid this, we now remove any such
symlink before partitioning the disk.  This makes zpool_label_disk_wait() truly
wait for the new link to show up instead of returning if it finds an old link
still in place.  Otherwise there is a window between when udev deletes and
recreates the link during which access attempts will fail with ENOENT.

Also, clean up a comment about waiting for udev to create symlinks.  It no
longer needs to describe the special cases for the link names, since that is
now handled in a separate helper function.

Native ZFS for Linux! ZFS is an advanced file system and volume manager which was originally developed for Solaris. It has been successfully ported to FreeBSD and now there is a functional Linux ZFS kernel port too. The port currently includes a fully functional and stable SPA, DMU, and ZVOL with a ZFS Posix Layer (ZPL) on the way!

$ ./configure
$ make pkg
