+Subject: [PATCH] backport enforce arc_dnode_limit to 2.2
+
+This patch is a backport of a7a144e65 ("enforce arc_dnode_limit")
+for the 2.2 branch.
+
+back-ported from commit a7a144e655850b4160943e4ba315eb9a5dc2b2fe
+working around changes from:
+55427add3 ("Several improvements to ARC shrinking (#16197)")
+5b9f3b766 ("Soften pruning threshold on not evictable metadata")
+which are present in 2.2.3, but not in 2.2.8
