  Fix rare double free in vdev_geom_attrchanged
  
  sys/cddl/contrib/opensolaris/uts/common/fs/zfs/vdev_geom.c
          Don't drop the g_topology_lock before freeing old_physpath. That
          opens up a race where one thread can call vdev_geom_attrchanged,
          set old_physpath, drop the g_topology_lock, then block trying to
          acquire the SCL_STATE lock. Then another thread can come into
          vdev_geom_attrchanged, set old_physpath to the same value, and
          proceed to free it. When the first thread resumes, it will free
          the same location.
  
          It turns out that the SCL_STATE lock isn't needed. It was
          originally added by gibbs to protect vd->vdev_physpath while
          updating the same. However, the update process subsequently was
          switched to an atomic operation (a pointer swap). Now, there is
          no need for the SCL_STATE lock, and hence no need to drop the
          g_topology_lock.
