Hmmm, no, it looks like the zil_disable code is missing in the latest
8-stable! This confirmes what I noticed in operation and why I didn't
trust kenv.

I.e. this code is missing:
*:/sys> grep -rn zil_disable *
cddl/contrib/opensolaris/uts/common/fs/zfs/sys/zil.h:382:extern int zil_disable;
cddl/contrib/opensolaris/uts/common/fs/zfs/zfs_vfsops.c:897: if
(zil_disable) {
cddl/contrib/opensolaris/uts/common/fs/zfs/zil.c:69:int zil_disable =
0; /* disable intent logging */
cddl/contrib/opensolaris/uts/common/fs/zfs/zil.c:71:TUNABLE_INT("vfs.zfs.zil_disable",
&zil_disable);
cddl/contrib/opensolaris/uts/common/fs/zfs/zil.c:72:SYSCTL_INT(_vfs_zfs,
OID_AUTO, zil_disable, CTLFLAG_RW, &zil_disable, 0,
cddl/contrib/opensolaris/uts/common/fs/zfs/zvol.c:450: if
(bp->bio_cmd == BIO_FLUSH && !zil_disable)
Any ideas?
