ZoL facilitates seamless r/w cross-mounting with macOS, something no other filesystem allows, and that feature is critical for me to work on Linux drivers for Mac hardware. Please don't make life harder than necessary for developers like me. Your "extra work" argument seems disingenuous to me, Sebastian's patch is causing extra work for ZFS developers, not the kernel community. The maintenance burden for the kernel community to retain the export is zero.
I respectfully ask for 12209993e98c to be reverted, or alternatively amended to keep ZoL working.
Thanks,
Lukas
