I'll do that.

With the new changes, I won't need to.

p9_xen_write_todo is just a wrapper around xen_9pfs_queued to provide
a return value that works well with wait_event_interruptible.

I would prefer not to call p9_xen_write_todo here, because it's simpler
if we don't read prod and cons twice.

They are provided by the new ring macros, see
include/xen/interface/io/ring.h (the first patch).
