During reorganization, the mount time debug option was removed in favor
of module-load-time parameters.  However, the mount time option is still
a useful for feature during debug and for user-fault isolation when the
module is compiled into the kernel.

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).

While cacheing is generally frowned upon in the 9p world, it has its
place -- particularly in situations where the remote file system is
exclusive and/or read-only.  The vacfs views of venti content addressable
store are a real-world instance of such a situation.  To facilitate higher
performance for these workloads (and eventually use the fscache patches),
we have enabled a "loose" cache mode which does not attempt to maintain
any form of consistency on the page-cache or dcache.  This results in over
two orders of magnitude performance improvement for cacheable block reads
in the Bonnie benchmark.  The more aggressive use of the dcache also seems
to improve metadata operational performance.

There is a simple logic error in init_v9fs - the return code checks are

There were a number of conflicting naming schemes used in the v9fs project.
The directory was fs/9p, but MAINTAINERS and Documentation referred to
v9fs.  The module name itself was 9p2000, and the file system type was 9P.
This patch attempts to clean that up, changing all references to 9p in
order to match the directory name.  We'll also start using 9p instead of
v9fs as our patch prefix.

There is also a minor consistency cleanup in the options changing the name
option to uname in order to more closely match the Plan 9 options.

v9fs has been plagued by an over-complicated approach trying to map Linux
dentry semantics to Plan 9 fid semantics.  Our previous approach called for
aggressive flushing of the dcache resulting in several problems (including
wierd cwd behavior when running /bin/pwd).

This patch dramatically simplifies our handling of this fid management.  Fids
will not be clunked as promptly, but the new approach is more functionally
correct.  We now clunk un-open fids only when their dentry ref_count reaches 0
(and d_delete is called).

Another simplification is we no longer seek to match fids to the process-id or
uid of the action initiator.  The uid-matching will need to be revisited when
we fix the security model.

- handle failures when create_workqueue and kthread_create are called
- use kzalloc instead of kmalloc/memset 0

When a new session is created it uses a template object of the specified
transport type to instantiate its own copy.  The code for the making a copy of
the template object was lost, and the object itself is attached to the v9fs
session.  This leads to many sessions using the same transport instead of
having their own copy.

The patch puts back the code that makes a copy of the template object.
