Any of 2.x or 3.x line should work. However on older ones we just scan
/dev to find a device with the same major/minor as the one we've got
from stat (). It's possible to try to use mtab or /proc/mounts as hint
while still checking for major/minor match but it's not important. Also
I don't suppose anyone will use ZFS with older kernels
