3 + 20160906:
4 +        Add support for the MosChip MCS9904 four serial ports
5 +        controller.
6 +
7 +        Add support for walltimestamp in DTrace.
8 +
9 +        Various gdb improvments.
10 +
11 +        ZFS
12 +        Import the zio nop-write improvement from Illumos. To reduce I/O,
13 +        nop-write omits overwriting data if the checksum (cryptographically
14 +        secure) of new data matches the checksum of existing data.
15 +        It also saves space if snapshots are in use.
16 +
17 +        It currently works only on datasets with enabled compression, disabled
18 +        deduplication and sha256 checksums.
19 +
20 +        Add loader(8) tunable to enable/disable nopwrite functionality:
21 +        vfs.zfs.nopwrite_enabled
22 +
23 +        Introduce a new dataset aclmode setting "restricted" to protect ACL's
24 +        being destroyed or corrupted by a drive-by chmod.
25 +
26 +        New loader-only tunables:
27 +        vfs.zfs.sync_pass_deferred_free
28 +        vfs.zfs.sync_pass_dont_compress
29 +        vfs.zfs.sync_pass_rewrite
30 +
31 +        chkgrp(8) add support for q flag
