Fix txg_sync_thread deadlock
Update two kmem_alloc()'s in dbuf_dirty() to use KM_PUSHPAGE. Because these functions are called from txg_sync_thread we must ensure they don't reenter the zfs filesystem code via the .writepage callback. This would result in a deadlock. This deadlock is rare and has only been observed once under an abusive mmap() write workload. Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]>
