FreeBSD-main-amd64-test_zfs CI job still required?

Hi,

The "FreeBSD-main-amd64-test_zfs" CI Jenkins job has been failing on
ci.freebsd.org for over a year now, is this CI job is still required?

Currently the job terminates before running any tests due to the
bhyve configuration in the CI job "build.sh" script.

The patch below should repair the CI job to enable the tests to start,
however in my local testing one zfs test causes a kernel panic and
kyua aborts the test run.

The kernel panic test case is "tests/zil/zil_test:zil_002_pos".

I was able to run the other remaining tests on my local setup.

Regards,
Michal Scigocki
