busy on all disks that are a part of the ZFS pools without any load

Hello.

I have a problem with all diks that are a part of ZFS pools.
There is a busy state (6-7%) on all of them in the iostat. But only 
there! There aren't any load at all on the disks and other system 
utilities, such as gstat, 'zpool iostat', 'systat -iostat' which are 
reporting a zero busy status.

24 disks -> 8 ZFS pools
All 24 disks are on the 3Ware controller in JBOD mode (each disk works 
as a single disk without any hardware RAIDs)

twa0: <3ware 9000 series Storage Controller> port 0xd800-0xd8ff mem 
0xf6000000-0xf7ffffff,0xfaedf000-0xfaedffff irq 16 at device 0.0 on pci2
twa0: INFO: (0x15: 0x1300): Controller details:: Model 9650SE-24M8, 24 
ports, Firmware FE9X 4.08.00.006, BIOS BE9X 4.08.00.001
