It detects the zfs correctly with the full patch included. However
there's still some problem:

% sudo update-grub       
Generating grub.cfg ...
Found kernel of FreeBSD: /boot/kfreebsd-10.0-0-amd64.gz

ls: cannot access /boot/kernel/opensolaris.ko: No such file or directory

and either no grub.cfg created or still created with set
kFreeBSD.vfs.root.mountfrom=unknown:/dev/ada0s1
