Description

George Wilson:

In metaslab_alloc_dva() we avoid writing single-copy data to devices that are
degraded or have write errors. The problem is that if a device has a spare or
mirror then we will not write to those device even though one of leaf vdevs may
be healthy. This is suboptimal and instead we should only avoid writing to
top-level vdevs that are failing and have no other redundancy.
