panic in bpobj_space(): null pointer dereference
This is a race condition in the deadlist code.
A thread executing an administrative command that uses
dsl_deadlist_space_range() holds the lock of the whole deadlist_t to
protect the access of all its entries that the deadlist contains in an
avl tree.
Sync threads trying to insert a new entry in the deadlist (through
dsl_deadlist_insert() -> dle_enqueue()) do not hold the deadlist lock at
that moment. If the dle_bpobj is the empty bpobj (our sentinel value),
we close and reopen it. Between these two operations, it is possible
for the dsl_deadlist_space_range() thread to dereference that bpobj
which is NULL during that window.
Threads should hold the a deadlist's dl_lock when they manipulate its
internal data so scenarios like the one above are avoided.
