The CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL config item has not carried much meaning for a
while now and is almost always enabled by default. As agreed during the
Linux kernel summit, remove it from any "depends on" lines in Kconfigs.

The 9p client is currently undergoing regular regresssion and
stress testing as a by-product of the virtfs work. I think its
finally time to take off the experimental tags from the well-tested
code paths.

If INET=y and INFINIBAND=y, but IPV6=m then INFINIBAND_ADDR_TRANS is set
to n and the RDMA CM functions rdma_connect() et al are not built.
However, the current config dependencies allow NET_9P_RDMA to be selected
in this, which leads to a build failure. Fix this by adding a dependency
on INFINIBAND_ADDR_TRANS to disallow NET_9P_RDMA in this case.

linux-next:
Make 9p's RDMA option depend on INET since it uses Infiniband rdma_*
functions and that code depends on INET. Otherwise 9p can try to
use symbols which don't exist.

I used an if/endif block so that the menu items would remain
presented together.
Also correct an article adjective.

This patch implements the RDMA transport provider for 9P. It allows
mounts to be performed over iWARP and IB capable network interfaces.

There was some cleanup issues during early mount which would trigger
a kernel bug for certain types of failure. This patch reorganizes the
cleanup to get rid of the bad behavior.
This also merges the 9pnet and 9pnet_fd modules for the purpose of
configuration and initialization. Keeping the fd transport separate
from the core 9pnet code seemed like a good idea at the time, but in
practice has caused more harm and confusion than good.

This adds a transport to 9p for communicating between guests and a host
using a virtio based transport.

Most of these fixes were already submitted for old kernel versions, and were
approved, but for some reason they never made it into the releases.
Because this is a consolidation of a couple old missed patches, it touches both
Kconfigs and documentation texts.

This patch abstracts out the interfaces to underlying transports so that
new transports can be added as modules. This should also allow kernel
configuration of transports without ifdef-hell.

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).
