Description

May be related to LU-9960. It fixed the "can't import into ZFS 6.5.7 because a 7.1 feature is installed" issue.

Two downgrade tests:
Downgrade 2.10.1 to 2.10.0: zfs 7.1 to zfs 6.5.9 - works
Downgrade 2.10.1 to 2.9.0: zfs 7.1 to zfs 6.5.7 - pool not found

Pool not found is seen with zpool import <pool name> and zpool import <pool GUID>.
