Subject: [PATCH] ZTS: Fix create-o_ashift test case

The function that fills the uberblock ring buffer on every device label
has been reworked to avoid occasional failures caused by a race
condition that prevents 'zpool sync' from writing some uberblock
sequentially: this happens when the pool sync ioctl dispatch code calls
txg_wait_synced() while we're already waiting for a TXG to sync.
