Description

Running on a production system, the `zpool list -v` commands lists incorrect value for "ALLOC" and "FREE", see here:

NAME           SIZE  ALLOC   FREE  EXPANDSZ   FRAG    CAP  DEDUP  HEALTH  ALTROOT
...
cache             -      -      -         -      -      -
  c4t5d0       460G  4.21T  16.0E        8M     0%   938%
  c4t6d0       460G  4.22T  16.0E        8M     0%   938%
...

The device is only 460G in size:

$ sudo -u delphix sudo prtvtoc /dev/rdsk/c4t5d0
* /dev/rdsk/c4t5d0 partition map
*
* Dimensions:
*     512 bytes/sector
* 964689920 sectors
* 964689853 accessible sectors
*
...

The l2arc vdev space accounting was broken as of the landing of the
l2arc RAM reduction patch (89c86e3), as that patch completely removed a
couple calls to vdev_space_update(). The issue was compounded with the
lock change in l2arc_write_buffers() that went in with the arc_state
contention patch (244781f), as buffers could now be release with its
ARC_FLAG_L2_WRITING flag set without having been issued to the l2arc
device (this results in decrements without accompanying increments).

I'll propose a fix soon.
