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).

Implement a new way of creating special files. Instead of Tcreate+Twstat,
add one more field to Tcreate that contains special file description.

- mux.c: v9fs_poll_mux() was inline but not static resuling in needless
object size bloat
- mux.c: remove all "inline"s: gcc should know best what to inline
- #if 0 the following unused global functions:
- 9p.c: v9fs_v9fs_t_flush()
- conv.c: v9fs_create_tauth()
- mux.c: v9fs_mux_rpcnb()

v9fs_put_str used to store pointer to the source string, instead of the
cbuf copy. This patch corrects it.

- remove unnecessary -ENOMEM assignments
- return correct value when buf_check_size for second time in a buffer
- handle failures when create_workqueue and kthread_create are called
- use kzalloc instead of kmalloc/memset 0
- v9fs_str_copy and v9fs_str_compare were buggy, were used only in one
place, correct the logic and move it to the place it is used.

When v9fs_deserealize_fcall deserializes a Rwalk message, it incorrectly
allocates space for the qid array in the source instead of the destination
buffer.

buf_check_size function checks if the conv buffer has enough space for the
performed operation, but it doesn't return the result back to the calling
function, only logs an error in the log.
The report-back-error functionality was lost when buf_check_size was
converted from macro to inline function. The return in the macro used to
exit from the functions that include it, after the conversion it just exits
from the inline function itself.
The patch makes buf_check_size to return flag and all functions that use
it check if they should perform the operation, or exit.
