fc79d4b104 9p: rdma: RDMA Transport Support for 9P
This patch implements the RDMA transport provider for 9P. It allows
mounts to be performed over iWARP and IB capable network interfaces.

02da398b95 9p: eliminate depricated conv functions
Remove depricated conv functions which have been replaced with new 
protocol routines.

This patch also reworks the one instance of the file-system code which
directly calls conversion routines (to accomplish unpacking dirreads).

51d71f9f7a 9p: remove 9p fcall debug prints
One of the current debug options allows users to get a verbose dump of fcalls.
This isn't really necessary as correctly parsed protocol frames can be printed
as part of the code in the client functions.  The consolidated printfcalls
structure would require new entries to be added for every extension.  This
patch removes the debug print methods and their use.

ace51c4dd2 9p: add new protocol support code
This adds a new protocol processing support code based on Anthony Liguori's
9p library code.  This code performs protocol marshalling/unmarshalling using
printf like strings to represent protocol elements.  It is my intent to use
them to replace the current functions in conv.c as well as the 
p9_create_* functions.

This should make the client implementation much more clear, and also make it
much easier to add new protocol extensions by limiting the number of places
in which changes need to be made.

887b3ece65 9p: fix error path during early mount
There was some cleanup issues during early mount which would trigger
a kernel bug for certain types of failure.  This patch reorganizes the
cleanup to get rid of the bad behavior.

This also merges the 9pnet and 9pnet_fd modules for the purpose of
configuration and initialization.  Keeping the fd transport separate
from the core 9pnet code seemed like a good idea at the time, but in
practice has caused more harm and confusion than good.

8a0dc95fd9 9p: transport API reorganization
This merges the mux.c (including the connection interface) with trans_fd
in preparation for transport API changes.  Ultimately, trans_fd will need
to be rewritten to clean it up and simplify the implementation, but this
reorganization is viewed as the first step.

982c37cfb6 9p: remove sysctl
A sysctl method was added to enable and disable debugging levels.  After
further review, it was decided that there are better approaches to doing this
and the sysctl methodology isn't really desirable.  This patch removes the
sysctl code from 9p.

a80d923e13 9p: Make transports dynamic
This patch abstracts out the interfaces to underlying transports so that
new transports can be added as modules.  This should also allow kernel
configuration of transports without ifdef-hell.

bd238fb431 9p: Reorganization of 9p file system code
This patchset moves non-filesystem interfaces of v9fs from fs/9p to net/9p.
It moves the transport, packet marshalling and connection layers to net/9p
leaving only the VFS related files in fs/9p.  This work is being done in
preparation for in-kernel 9p servers as well as alternate 9p clients (other
than VFS).
