Currently, when unmounting a filesystem, ZFS will only wait for a txg sync if the dataset is dirty and not readonly. However, this can be problematic in cases where a dataset is remounted readonly immediately before being unmounted, which often happens when the system is being shut down. Since encrypted datasets require that all I/O is completed before the dataset is disowned, this issue causes problems when write I/Os leak into the txgs after the dataset is disowned, which can happen when sync=disabled. While looking into fixes for this issue, it was discovered that dsl_dataset_is_dirty() does not return B_TRUE when the dataset has been removed from the txg dirty datasets list, but has not actually been processed yet. Furthermore, the implementation is comletely different from dmu_objset_is_dirty(), adding to the confusion. Rather than relying on this function, this patch forces the umount code path (and the remount readonly code path) to always perform a txg sync on read-write datasets and removes the function altogether.
