Merge tag '9p-for-5.11-rc1' of git://github.com/martinetd/linux

Pull 9p update from Dominique Martinet:

 - fix long-standing limitation on open-unlink-fop pattern

 - add refcount to p9_fid (fixes the above and will allow for more
   cleanups and simplifications in the future)

* tag '9p-for-5.11-rc1' of git://github.com/martinetd/linux:
  9p: Remove unnecessary IS_ERR() check
  9p: Uninitialized variable in v9fs_writeback_fid()
  9p: Fix writeback fid incorrectly being attached to dentry
  9p: apply review requests for fid refcounting
  9p: add refcount to p9_fid struct
  fs/9p: search open fids first
  fs/9p: track open fids
  fs/9p: fix create-unlink-getattr idiom
