The Linux kernel's rwsem's have never provided an interface to allow a reader to be upgraded to a writer. Historically, this functionality has been implemented by a SPL wrapper function. However, this approach depends on internal knowledge of the rw_semaphore and is therefore rather brittle. Since the ZFS code must always be able to fallback to rw_exit() and rw_enter() when an rw_tryupgrade() fails; this functionality isn't critical. Furthermore, the only potentially performance sensitive consumer is dmu_zfetch() and no decrease in performance was observed with this change applied. See the PR comments for additional testing details. Therefore, it is being retired to make the build more robust and to simplify the rwlock implementation.
