Disable high priority ZIO threads on FreeBSD and Linux
High priority threads are handling ZIL writes. While there is no
ZIL compression, there is encryption, checksuming and RAIDZ math.
We've found that on large systems 1 taskq with 5 threads can be
a bottleneck for throughput, IOPS or both. Instead of just bumping
number of threads with a risk of overloading CPUs and increasing
latency, switch to using TQ_FRONT mechanism to increase sync write
requests priority within standard write threads. Do not do it on
Illumos, since its TQ_FRONT implementation is inherently unfair.
FreeBSD and Linux don't have this problem, so we can do it there.
