Part of the problem is that you've mixed a semi-complex 9p patch with
other net patches, I think it'd be easiser to move forward if you'd
split this (I can't take non-9p patches, and I'm not sure the -net tree
wants the 9p patches as we're a small world appart sometimes...)


For 9p, I can't (easily) test xen, so I'd appreciate if you could resend
with Stefano Stabellini <stefano.stabellini@xxxxxxx> in Ccs as he has
been looking after this transport; I can have a quick look but don't
have the time for a proper review

Thanks,
