Re: ZFS L2ARC - incorrect size and abnormal system load on r255173

Correct, there's clearly some other cases which sets
ARC_L2COMPRESS on b_flags for write, but I cant see
where unless its some how gets through from the read
cases.

Attached is a patch which removes all paths which
set ARC_L2COMPRESS on b_flags for both read and write.

Revert the last patch and try this one.

To be clear l2_compress_failures are only a failure
to compress the data, which is not an error.

Have you seen any l2_io_error or l2_cksum_bad since
applying the ashift patch?

    Regards
    Steve
