314 * implementation does not support it, the memory will be treated
317 * This may hold locks, disable interrupts, and/or preemption,
318 * and the zpool_unmap_handle() must be called to undo those
319 * actions. The code that uses the mapped handle should complete
320 * its operatons on the mapped handle memory quickly and unmap
