These two patches fix two hard-to-hit (but really annoying) bugs in
9p.
The first one was posted earlier in February (with one R-b), the
second
is a new one.

Both of these have had soaking in NixOS distribution kernels for
a couple of months with no ill effects.

  fs/9p: Compare qid.path in v9fs_test_inode
  net/9p: Switch to wait_event_killable()

Could you apply these? Thanks!

I can pick those, or, if you (or somebody else) are willing to actively
maintain a 9p tree, you could start sending straight to Linus - up to
you.
