This pull request includes a number of patches
addressing improvements in the cache portions of the 9p
client.
The biggest improvements have to do with fixing handling
of inodes and eliminating duplicate structures and unnecessary
allocation/release of inode structures and many associated
unnecessary protocol traffic. This also dramatically
reduced code complexity across the code and sets us up to add
proper temporal cache capabilities.
