The slab depot maintains an additional small data structure, the "slab
summary," which is used to reduce the amount of work needed to come back
online after a crash. The slab summary maintains an entry for each slab
indicating whether or not the slab has ever been used, whether it is clean
(i.e. all of its reference count updates have been persisted to storage),
and approximately how full it is. During recovery, each physical zone will
attempt to recover at least one slab, stopping whenever it has recovered a
slab which has some free blocks. Once each zone has some space (or has
determined that none is available), the target can resume normal operation
in a degraded mode. Read and write requests can be serviced, perhaps with
degraded performance, while the remainder of the dirty slabs are recovered.
