8b81ef589a 9p: consolidate transport structure
Right now there is a transport module structure which provides per-transport
type functions and data and a transport structure which contains per-instance
public data as well as function pointers to instance specific functions.

This patch moves public transport visible instance data to the client
structure (which in some cases had duplicate data) and consolidates the
functions into the transport module structure.

72029fe85d 9p: implement proper trans module refcounting and unregistration
9p trans modules aren't refcounted nor were they unregistered
properly.  Fix it.

* Add 9p_trans_module->owner and reference the module on each trans
  instance creation and put it on destruction.

* Protect v9fs_trans_list with a spinlock.  This isn't strictly
  necessary as the list is manipulated only during module loading /
  unloading but it's a good idea to make the API safe.

* Unregister trans modules when the corresponding module is being
  unloaded.

* While at it, kill unnecessary EXPORT_SYMBOL on p9_trans_fd_init().

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.

ee443996a3 9p: Documentation updates
The kernel-doc comments of much of the 9p system have been in disarray since
reorganization.  This patch fixes those problems, adds additional documentation
and a template book which collects the 9p information.

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.

dd1a458412 9p: return NULL when trans not found
v9fs_match_trans function returns arbitrary transport module instead of NULL
when the requested transport is not registered. This patch modifies the
function to return NULL in that case.

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.

fb0466c3ae 9p: fix bad kconfig cross-dependency
This patch moves transport dynamic registration and matching to the net
module to prevent a bad Kconfig dependency between the net and fs 9p modules.

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).
