Some more insights

The problem seems to happen only when you add a ashift=9 special vdev to a pool with ashift=12.
Without forcing ashift, the Optane partitions as special vdev uses ashift=9

When I force ashift=12 everything is ok:
The solution should be that a special vdev remove should not proceed with different vdevs.
This is the behaviour on a regular vdev remove

I have made some performance tests with the new Allocation Classes on newest OmniOS bloody on ESXi 6.7U3 with Optane partitions (pass-through) as special vdev and Slog.

As I was told that special vdevs are removable, I tried a vdev remove.
During this, OmniOS crashed and after a few secondes after reboot, OmniOS crashed again. I had just enough time to delete /etc/zfs/zpool.cache to hinder a mount on next reboot.
