Those are whole-disk partitions.

Only the log and cache disks have boot and swap partitions.

da3 - da7 are identical to da2.

So maybe it's a little weird that our boot blocks are on our
ZLOG/L2ARC devices, rather than our data devices?

But since gptloader (and the old zfsloader) handle this just fine.
