Assming your jail is tagged as 'named' in rc.conf, create a file
/etc/fstab.named with your devfs mount details in there.  Then add

   jail_mount_enable=3D"YES"   (applies to all jails)

or

   jail_named_mount_enable=3D"YES"  (just for that jail)

/etc/rc.d/jail will mount the contents of /etc/fstab.named at jail
startup time, which is well after all the zfs mounts have happened.

See rc.conf(5) for details.
