I guess the change was led by the Debian sync, for zesty the packages are synced and derived from the Debian one, while previous packages aren't. I don't think there's extensive use of those Debian packages for ZFS as rootfs at the moment, while other common cases were tested to be working. So if there's trouble led by those packages let's work on it...

Experienced this with Ubuntu Zesty. Xenial seems to ship with a different zfs script for the initrd. Work around when it happens: unmount the dataset that should not be mounted, and exit the initramfs rescue prompt to resume booting.
