    Limit the amount of dnode metadata in the ARC

    Metadata-intensive workloads can cause the ARC to become permanently
    filled with dnode_t objects as they're pinned by the VFS layer.
    Subsequent data-intensive workloads may only benefit from about
    25% of the potential ARC (arc_c_max - arc_meta_limit).

    In order to help track metadata usage more precisely, the other_size
    metadata arcstat has replaced with dbuf_size, dnode_size and bonus_size.

    The new zfs_arc_dnode_limit tunable, which defaults to 10% of
    zfs_arc_meta_limit, defines the minimum number of bytes which is desirable
    to be consumed by dnodes.  Attempts to evict non-metadata will trigger
    async prune tasks if the space used by dnodes exceeds this limit.

    The new zfs_arc_dnode_reduce_percent tunable specifies the amount by
    which the excess dnode space is attempted to be pruned as a percentage of
    the amount by which zfs_arc_dnode_limit is being exceeded.  By default,
    it tries to unpin 10% of the dnodes.

    The problem of dnode metadata pinning was observed with the following
    testing procedure (in this example, zfs_arc_max is set to 4GiB):

        - Create a large number of small files until arc_meta_used exceeds
          arc_meta_limit (3GiB with default tuning) and arc_prune
          starts increasing.

        - Create a 3GiB file with dd.  Observe arc_mata_used.  It will still
          be around 3GiB.

        - Repeatedly read the 3GiB file and observe arc_meta_limit as before.
          It will continue to stay around 3GiB.

    With this modification, space for the 3GiB file is gradually made
    available as subsequent demands on the ARC are made.  The previous behavior
    can be restored by setting zfs_arc_dnode_limit to the same value as the
    zfs_arc_meta_limit.
