After this patch one might as well revert the rest of commit
80b45261a0b2 ("9P: Add cancelled() to the transport functions.") too. It
seems the entire cancelled callback stuff is now pointless.

As I already asked in https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/7/15/87 : did that
commit "forget to actually hook up rdma_cancelled() into
p9_rdma_trans()?". It does look so to me.
