Public bug reported:

Provide SPL/ZFS modules as part of the kernel binary. This replaces zfs-
dkms which can take a long time to configure and build. ZFS is used as
backing store for Ceph and other cloud file systems. Delivering ZFS
within a DKMS package is inappropriate for many platforms due to the
heavy weight toolchain and configure/build requirements.
