Currently, zvol uses a single taskq, resulting in throughput bottleneck
under heavy load due to lock contention on the single taskq. This patch
addresses the performance bottleneck under heavy load conditions by
utilizing multiple taskqs, thus mitigating lock contention. The number
of taskqs scale dynamically based on the available CPUs in the system,
as illustrated below:

                taskq   total
cpus    taskqs  threads threads
