FWIW on a system with functioning ZFS pools I get - after the lines
with zil_lwb_cache and zio_cache - many lines with "name" marked as
'^G':
....
zil_lwb_cache 208     372    0        0    20     0    20    20     0   inf    0
^G           1024     1799    0       32   443     1   442   442     0
  inf    0
^G           1536      685    0      326   323   143   180   302     0
  inf    0
....
