Hello.

We seem to have a problem with l2arc on zfs system on 10.1-BETA1 FreeBSD 
10.1-BETA1 #1 r271710 server. The server has a l2arc cache configured 
from Intel SSD 480G disk. The problem is that l2_io_error and 
l2_cksum_bad values are constantly growing, however there are no traces 
of any hardware malfunctioning. As for now, the values are
kstat.zfs.misc.arcstats.l2_io_error: 1501
kstat.zfs.misc.arcstats.l2_cksum_bad: 19480

Here is the output of zpool status:
   pool: zpool
  state: ONLINE
   scan: none requested
