Support accessing .zfs/snapshot via NFS
This patch is based on the previous work done by @andrey-ve and @yshui. It triggers the automount by using kern_path() to traverse to the known snapshout mount point. Once the snapshot is mounted NFS can access the contents of the snapshot. Allowing NFS clients to access to the .zfs/snapshot directory would normally mean that a root user on a client mounting an export with 'no_root_squash' would be able to use mkdir/rmdir/mv to manipulate snapshots on the server. To prevent configuration mistakes a zfs_admin_snapshot module option was added which disables the mkdir/rmdir/mv functionally. System administators desiring this functionally must explicitly enable it. Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]> Closes #2797 Closes #1655 Closes #616
