--- Comment #6 from [email protected] ---
Technically, the 10-second timeout prevents a permanent hang, but it would
still cause severe boot delays in most scenarios.

Since pools often contain dozens of datasets, a 10-second timeout per dataset
quickly accumulates into minutes of delay. This by itself could lead to the
system failing to come up in time or triggering watchdog timeouts.
