Description
ZFS fails to recognize the disk if the devid has changed. The expected behavior
is that ZFS will try to find the disk by ldi_open_by_devid() and if it fails
then it falls back to looking up by the /dev path.

Please see Comments for additional info.
Work Around
We hit a similar issue during s10u3 development and the simple workaround was to export and reimport the pool. This should force the devids to get updated.
