Porting notes:

Because support for exposing a uint64_t parameter wasn't added
until v3.17-rc1 the zfs_free_max_blocks variable has been declared
as a unsigned long.  This is already far larger than required and
it allows us to avoid additional autoconf compatibility code.

The default value has been set to 100,000 on Linux instead of
ULONG_MAX which is used on Illumos.  This was done to limit the
number of outstanding IOs in the system when snapshots are destroyed.
This helps ensure individual TXG sync times are kept reasonable and
memory isn't wasted managing a huge backlog of outstanding IOs.
