Now I see the commit of which you speak.  It seems that zpools on
zvols were removed due to precisely the same problems that I'm
experiencing, then reenabled without comment when pjd imported zpool
version 28.  But the underlying issue remains.  What do you think
about my change in https://reviews.freebsd.org/D4998?  Disable the
feature by default so that those of us who aren't using it can operate
deadlock-free, but allow it to be enabled for people like Kurt Lidl
with unusual configurations.
