I saw that ZFS update patch as I was prepping my ZFS package changes for 
submission--I had the 2.2.4 update as part of the series, and decided to wait 
until the already-submitted package update landed to send in my ZFS package 
rework.

My package rework is issue #71482, and I think is a better solution since 
packages like zfs-auto-snapshot depend on the zfs user-space tools. 
Additionally, the updated ZFS package is only a temporary fix as ZFS 2.2.4 only 
supports up through Linux 6.8 kernels (and linux-libre 6.9 was recently made 
the default).

Also, thank you Efraim and Leo for a bit of encouragement, which motivated me 
to finally submit my reworked ZFS packages for upstream inclusion. :)

Cheers,
Kaelyn

P.S. For my patch, I didn't include any calls to 'make-zfs-for-kernel' for any 
of the linux-libre kernels, since the resulting packages aren't substitutable 
and the kernel version needed would be use-case dependent.
