A workaround that works locally (and only locally) is to build zfs-dkms (AUR) yourself and modify it so it doesn't break on these GPL-only symbols. While the licenses would forbid distributing it as such, you can do so on your own machine just fine.

And if your root is on ZFS, make a snapshot before updating! I set up a pacman hook[0] which runs zfs_autobackup[1] which automatically manages snapshots, so I can always easily roll back to a non-broken state. The ZFSBootMenu[2] bootloader makes that extremely fast without even needing a bootable USB-drive. :)
