Brian Behlendorf fc173c8589 Disable .zfs directory on 32-bit systems 
The .zfs control directory implementation currently relies on
the fact that there is a direct 1:1 mapping from an object id
to its inode number.  This works well as long as the system
uses a 64-bit value to store the inode number.

Unfortunately, the Linux kernel defines the inode number as
an 'unsigned long' type.  This means that for 32-bit systems
will only have 32-bit inode numbers but we still have 64-bit
object ids.

This problem is particularly acute for the .zfs directories
which leverage those upper 32-bits.  This is done to avoid
conflicting with object ids which are allocated monotonically
starting from 0.  This is likely to also be a problem for
datasets on 32-bit systems with more than ~2 billion files.

The right long term fix must remove the simple 1:1 mapping.
Until that's done the only safe thing to do is to disable the
.zfs directory on 32-bit systems.

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
