Disable write merging on ZVOLs
The current ZVOL implementation does not explicitly set merge
options on ZVOL device queues, which results in the default merge
behavior.
Explicitly set QUEUE_FLAG_NOMERGES on ZVOL queues allowing the
ZIO pipeline to do its work.
Initial benchmarks (tiotest with no O_DIRECT) show random write
performance going up almost 3X on 8K ZVOLs, even after significant
rewrites of the logical space allocation.
