I received an email that ZFS U-boot booting was tricky to get to work,
since it required old pool version, and didn't work at all with big endian.

When I first did ZFS, I took the GRUB sources in 2012. So this time around,
I collected the commits from 2012 to now, and merged them into u-boot. Some
~50 commits or so. It makes U-boot work with modern pools, and current
default compression (lz4) as well as raidz/mirror boots.

It is a large change, I agree. But I'm unsure how to split it into smaller
commits. It is mostly bring it up to current with its upstream.

If it is preferred to post to the ML, I will do so - I thought "git pull"
was an alternate. Please advice,

Lund
