Re: [V9fs-developer] [GIT PULL] 9p Patches for 2.6.23 merge window

["Latchesar Ionkov" <lucho@ionkov.net>]

I thought that it is not a good idea to keep the v9fs_ prefix for code
that is in different places (fs/9p and net/9p). If keeping the old
prefix is more acceptable, I can create a new patch without the
"v9fs_"->"p9_" renames.

Thanks,
    Lucho
