	I have two requests.

	1. Use fstab instead of vfs.root.mountfrom.
	   loader with LOADER_ZFS_SUPPORT can read /etc/fstab,
	   so we should use fstab like UFS.

# Device	Mountpoint	FStype	Options	Dump	Pass#
zroot		/		zfs		rw,noatime	0	0
- - - - - - - - - -

	2. all compression=on is not usable.
	   I had used all zfs with compression=on.  In thus environment,
	   toooo latency, I got frustration.  We should use compression=on
	   on some fs.
