Please use "git diff -C --stat --summary" to generate the diffstat
summary.

In particular, because you didn't use -C (or -M), git have you an
old-style diffstat without renames, so the diffstat doesn't show that a
lot of it was moving code around.

(That said, you seem to have changed names a lot too, so it's not pure
code movement).

With rename detection enabled, I get

36 files changed, 3444 insertions(+), 3130 deletions(-)

due to finding some (partially dubious) renames:

rename fs/9p/mux.h => include/net/9p/conn.h (53%)
rename {fs => include/net}/9p/transport.h (59%)
rename {fs => net}/9p/conv.c (55%)
rename {fs => net}/9p/fcprint.c (64%)
rename {fs => net}/9p/mux.c (55%)

even though is misses a lot of others (due to all the "v9fs" -> "p9"
changes in the source code too - was that really worth it?).
