Based on omnios-build commit 155193f and illumos-omnios commit c4ba593.

This is a partial update, but includes the entirety of illumos-omnios, so expect a reboot.  Remember, if you're doing full-repo transfers, use the new "-m latest" argument in pkgrecv to prevent pulling old packages over.

Since last time:

- KVM has been updated per the r151014 update --> it's now up to date modulo the removal of VND stuff.  Once VND upstreams, bloody will be the first to see a fully synched with upstream KVM.

- The rest of the changes are in illumos, pulled down from upstream.

- Various bugfixes upstreamed from Delphix in mdb & zfs, and Joyent in other areas.

- Flow control is now in the NFS server, which prevents starvation when the network outperforms the disks.  (This will be backported to r151014.)

- zpool import speedup.  This should improved boot times on systems with many ZFS filesystems.

- More SMB bugfixes upstreamed from Nexenta.

Happy updating!
Dan
