Note that, independently of this change, I'm not convinced ls -s reports the right information. It seems to assume that the block size is fixed and universal, while on ZFS it can vary from one file to another. I believe ls should switch to keeping blocksize in bytes and printing howmany(st_blocks * st_blksize, blocksize) instead of keeping blocksize in units of 512 bytes and printing howmany(st_blocks, blocksize).

Ignore this, st_blocks is always in units of 512 bytes, not in units of st_blksize.
