I can only second @hedrick on his comment and as already written above, recommend everyone to build 2.2.2 by yourself. I am running 2.2.2 stable for a couple of weeks on mantic. I still have to fix one notebook here which got f**ked up (most likely) by this and reports no errors on a pool scrub but crashes with a ZFS kernel core dump on a `zdb -vvv -ccc POOL_NAME`. The pool is marked having errors and when you restart the machine works as if nothing ever happened. So it is a hidden ticking time bomb as you don't know when the system will crash. Unfortunately I wasn't able to narrow down the problem to a specific file system on the pool yet.

But I can only recommend to go with the full 2.2.2 patch set which has been tested by the ZFS dev team and a couple of highly motivated folks involved in fixing the bug(s) back then.
