Brian Behlendorf ab4e74cc38 Fix bogus kmem leak warning
Commit 5c7a036 correctly relocated the creation of a taskq
and the registraction of the kmem_cache_shrinker after the
initialization of the kmem tracking code.  However, the
cleanup of these structures was not done before the leak
checks in spl_kmem_fini().  This resulted in an incorrect
'kmem leaked' warning even though there was no actual leak.

The Solaris Porting Layer (SPL) is a Linux kernel module which provides many of the Solaris kernel APIs. This shim layer makes it possible to run Solaris kernel code in the Linux kernel with relatively minimal modification. This can be particularly useful when you want to track upstream Solaris development closely and dont want the overhead of maintaining a large patch which converts Solaris primitives to Linux primitives.

To build packages for your distribution:

$ ./configure
$ make pkg

To copy the kernel code inside your kernel source tree for builtin compilation:

$ ./configure --enable-linux-builtin --with-linux=/usr/src/linux-...
$ ./copy-builtin /usr/src/linux-...

Full documentation for building, configuring, and using the SPL can be found at: http://zfsonlinux.org
