This commit preserves the recursive function dbuf_hold_impl() but moves
the local variables and function arguments to the heap to minimize
the stack frame size. Enough space is initially allocated on the
stack for 20 levels of recursion. This technique was based on commit
34229a2f2a which reduced stack usage of
traverse_visitbp().
dbuf_hold_impl() is mutually recursive with dbuf_findbp(),
but the latter function is also called from other functions.
Therefore dbuf_findbp() must contain logic to determine how to call
dbuf_hold_impl(). To this end, dbuf_hold_impl() now takes a
struct dbuf_hold_impl_data pointer as an argument. If that argument
is NULL it calls dbuf_hold_impl() as before, otherwise it calls
__debuf_hold_impl() with a single dbuf_hold_impl_data pointer argument.
As the name implies, dbuf_hold_impl_data stores the arguments and local
variables for dbuf_hold_impl().

Github issue 22 reported a stack overrun when the zfs module was
loaded, possibly related to the presence of existing zpools created
under zfs-fuse. The stack trace showed 9 levels of recursion between
dsl_scan_visitbp() and dsl_scan_recurse(). To reduce stack overhead in
that code path, this commit moves the 128 byte blkptr_t data strucutre
in dsl_scan_visitbp() to the heap.

Eliminated local variables pointing to members of the zio struct.
Just refer to the struct members directly. This saved about 32 bytes per
call, but this function can be called recurisvely up to 19 levels deep,
so we potentially save up to 608 bytes.

Deep recursive call chains are contributing to segfaults in ztest due to
heavy stack use. Inlining zio_execute() helps reduce the stack depth of
the zio_notify_parent() -> zio_execute() -> zio_wait() recursive cycle.
I am no longer seeing ztest segfaults in this code path with this change.

Deep recursive call chains are contributing to segfaults in ztest due
to heavy stack use. Inlining dbuf_findbp() helps reduce the stack depth
of the dbuf_findbp() -> dbuf_hold_impl() cycle. However, segfaults are
still occurring in this code path, so further reductions are still needed.

The spa_load function may call itself recursively through
the spa_load_impl function. This call path of spa_load->
spa_load_impl->spa_load->spa_load_impl takes 640 bytes of
stack. By forcing spa_load_impl to be inlined as part of
spa_load the can be reduced to 448 bytes, for a savings of
192 bytes,
A number of ztest functions create one or more 312B ztest_od_t data
structures. To conserve stack usage, this commit moves all of these data
structures to the heap. However, I am still seeing ztest segfaults due
to heavy stack usage of the dbuf_findbp() -> dbuf_hold_impl() recursion.

Using sparse files for the test configurations had atleast three
significant advantages.
1) Actually test sparse files to ensure they work.
2) Drastically reduce required disk space for the regression test
suite. This turns out to be fairly important when running the
test suite in a virtualized environment.
3) Significantly speed of the test suite. Run time of zconfig.sh
dropped from 2m:56s to 1m:00s on my test system, zpios-sanity.sh
nows runs in only 0m:26s.
This change updates zconfig.sh to reference /dev/zvol/ instead
of simply /dev/. It also extends the texts to verify correct
minor device creation for import/export and module load/unload.
The feature branch 'fix-taskq' in Linux's ZFS tree changes the taskq_dispatch()
flag from TQ_SLEEP to TQ_NOSLEEP to avoid sleeping in some circumstances.
However, this has the side effect that taskq_dispatch() now may fail, and since
the return code was not even being checked, it could lead to zio's not being
scheduled to execute.
I'm fixing this in a simplistic but not very elegant way, by just looping until
taskq_dispatch() succeeds.

The splat module is only needed for the spl regression tests.
But if we add it to MODULES then 'zfs.sh -u' will be able to
unload it if needed, The downside if 'zfs.sh' will always
load it but it's overhead is minimal and in a production
setting you'll always be doing a 'modprobe zfs' anyway so
this is really just for testing.
Extend the Makefiles with an uninstall target to cleanly
remove a package which was installed with 'make install'.
Additionally, ensure a 'depmod -a' is run as part of the
install to update the module dependency information.
The common.sh script assumed that it was either being run from
in-tree or was installed under /usr/libexec/zfs. If this was
not the case, because of say the default --prefix=/usr/local,
then the paths would be wrong. To fix this common.sh is now
generated from common.sh.in with the correct path information
provided at configure time.
