I am not aware of any block cloning issues now.  All this thread about 
bclone_enabled actually started after I asked why it is still disabled. 
Thanks to Mark Millard for spotting this issue I could fix, but now we 
are back at the point of re-enabling it again.  Since the tunable does 
not even exist anywhere outside of FreeBSD base tree, I'd propose to 
give this code another try here too.  I see no point to have it disabled 
at least in main unless somebody needs time to run some specific tests 
first.
