Tim Chase 4c83fa9b87 Write issue taskq shouldn't be dynamic
This is as much an upstream compatibility as it's a bit of a performance
gain.

The illumos taskq implemention doesn't allow a TASKQ_THREADS_CPU_PCT type
to be dynamic and in fact enforces as much with an ASSERT.

As to performance, if this taskq is dynamic, it can cause excessive
contention on tq_lock as the threads are created and destroyed because it
can see bursts of many thousands of tasks in a short time, particularly
in heavy high-concurrency zvol write workloads.

Native ZFS for Linux!

ZFS is an advanced file system and volume manager which was originally developed for Solaris and is now maintained by the Illumos community.

ZFS on Linux, which is also known as ZoL, is currently feature complete. It includes fully functional and stable SPA, DMU, ZVOL, and ZPL layers.
