* remove lot of update to different data structure
* add a seperate callback for zero copy request.
* above makes non zero copy code path simpler
* remove conditionalizing TREAD/TREADDIR/TWRITE in the zero copy path
* Fix the dotu p9_check_errors with zero copy. Add sufficient doc around
* Add support for both in and output buffers in zero copy callback
* pin and unpin pages in the same context
* use helpers instead of defining page offset and rest of page ourself
* Fix mem leak in p9_check_errors
* Remove 'E' and 'F' in p9pdu_vwritef

Venkateswararao Jujjuri (JV) 4038866dab [net/9p] Add gup/zero_copy support to VirtIO transport layer.
Modify p9_virtio_request() and req_done() functions to support
additional payload sent down to the transport layer through
tc->pubuf and tc->pkbuf.

Venkateswararao Jujjuri (JV) 022cae3655 [net/9p] Preparation and helper functions for zero copy
This patch prepares p9_fcall structure for zero copy. Added
fields send the payload buffer information to the transport layer.
In addition it adds a 'private' field for the transport layer to
store mapped/pinned page information so that it can be freed/unpinned
during req_done.

This patch also creates trans_common.[ch] to house helper functions.
It adds the following helper functions.

p9_release_req_pages - Release pages after the transaction.
p9_nr_pages - Return number of pages needed to accomodate the payload.
payload_gup - Translates user buffer into kernel pages.
