I just thought of an enhancement to zfs that would be very helpful in
disaster recovery situations - having zfs cache device serial/model
numbers - the information we see in cfgadm -v.

I'm feeling the pain of this now as I try to figure out which disks on
my failed filer belonged to my raidz2 pool - zpool status tells me the
pool is faulted (I don't have enough working SATA ports to connect all
the drives from the pool), but doesn't tell me which individual
devices were in that pool (just the devids of the devices).
