Sorry haven't tested yet, I need to fiddle a bit to get a tcp server
setup right now and got a fscache bug I'd like fixed for this merge
window...

I've confirmed the module gets loaded but that's as far as I can get
right now... it calls p9_fd_create_tcp so it's probably quite ok :)

I'd also be tempted to add a new transport config option that defaults
to true/NET_9P value -- in my opinion the main advantage of splitting
this is not installing tcp/fd transport which can more easily be abused
than virtio for VMs who wouldn't need it (most of them), so having a
toggle would be handy.


Feel free to resend in a proper form though, I could make up a commit
message but it might as well be your words!
