The problem is that zcp_convert_return_values() assumes that there's exactly one value on the stack, but that isn't always true. It ends up putting the wrong thing on the stack which is then consumed by zcp_convert_return_values, which either adds the wrong message to the nvlist, or blows up.

The fix is to make sure that callers of zcp_convert_return_values() clear the stack before pushing their error message, and zcp_convert_return_values() should VERIFY that the stack is the expected size.
