Bug description:
  == SRU Justification Bionic ==

  The HWE 5.3 kernel requires ZFS + SPL to support dkms module build
  functionality for kernels 4.15 through to 5.3.  Basically, the ZFS+SPL
  compat commits between 4.15 and 5.3 are required to allow the modules
  to build on kernels upto and include the HWE 5.3 kernel.

  == The Fix ==

  Backport of upstream commits:

  SPL:

  == Testcase ==

  Without these commits users who install kernels and kernel headers
  from 4.16 through to 5.3 inclusive won't be able to build spl + zfs in
  Bionic because of the lack of the kernel compat fixes.  With the
  commits, zfs + spl dkms modules can build cleanly and pass the ubuntu
  ZFS regression tests found in the kernel team autotests git
  repository.

  == Risk ==

  This is a sizeable backport that touches a fair amount of spl + zfs
  kernel interfacing code. There is a risk that the backport may cause a
  regression in functionality that has not been exercised by the ZFS
  regression tests. This backport with the zfs regression testing
  ensures that no regression in core zfs functionality has been found.
  It must be noted that most of the patches are upstream compat fixes
  that are known to be working with the latest ZFS that is being used in
  focal, so we are confident the original compat changes work.

  Note that these updates have all been build tested on x86-64, arm64
  and s390x systems with kernels from 4.16 to 5.3 and regression tested
  with the ubuntu zfs regression tests.
