OpenZFS 8906 - uts: illumos rootfs should support salted cksum
Porting notes: * As of grub-2.02 these checksums are not supported. However, as pointed out in #6501 there are alternatives such as EFISTUB which work and have no such restriction. A warning was added to the checksum property section of the zfs.8 man page.
