Re: [V9fs-developer] [PATCH 1/2] 9p: Add fscache support to 9p

[Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>]

Getting closer, I'm getting an error when I build with make allconfig though:
(You should be checking with allmodconfig,allnoconfig,sparse, etc.
before submitting, follow the checklist in
Documentation/SubmitChecklist as much as you can)
(Actually, just realized when I wasn't building with allcode, I wasn't
testing your code, I can't build with 9P FS Cache enabled)

There also appears to be an error in the mount-time code if we can't
connect to the server:
(This one may be a latent regression from older code, I'm trying to
track it down now)
