I'm hoping the next batch of changes stays entirely in userland and doesn't require a reboot.  The problem with patching zdb is that it requires an upgrade of the whole ZFS package, which forces a reboot.

r151014(~)[0]% pkg search `which zdb`
INDEX      ACTION   VALUE        PACKAGE
path       hardlink usr/sbin/zdb pkg:/system/file-system/zfs at 0.5.11-0.151014
r151014(~)[0]% 

So if it happens, it mightn't happen as quickly as some other things I have in the backport pipeline.
