Porting notes:
This patch ported perfectly cleanly to ZoL. During testing 100% cached
small-block reads, extreme contention was noticed on rrl->rr_lock from
rrw_exit() due to the frequent entering and leaving ZPL. Illumos picked
up this patch from FreeBSD and it also helps under Linux.
On a 1-minute 4K cached read test with 10 fio processes pinned to a single
socket on a 4-socket (10 thread per socket) NUMA system, contentions on
rrl->rr_lock were reduced from 508799 to 43085.
