FWIW, I'd reproduced it here as well.  With the addition of checking in
p9_client_cb() whether the tag is already freed in IDR, reporting ->status
when it's not "sent" and reporting Tflush, I've got this:

[ 2754.713015] 9pnet: flushing 1
[ 2755.516123] 9pnet: flush 1 [3]done
[ 2758.443265] 9pnet: flushing 16
[ 2768.655768] 9pnet: flush 16 [8]done
[ 2783.939538] 9pnet: flushing 30
[ 2786.067856] 9pnet: flush 30 [3]done
[ 2809.784119] 9pnet: [ffff880113213000] delivery in 0, tag 1
[ 2809.948681] 9pnet: [ffff880113213000] using tag 1 with odd status (4)

Here we have delivery when that sucker is into p9_free_req(), but hasn't
removed from IDR yet.

[ 2809.948681] 9pnet: [ffff880113213000] delivery in 0, tag 1
[ 2816.767861] 9pnet: [ffff880113213000] using tag 1 with odd status (4)

Ditto.

[ 2816.767861] 9pnet: flushing 4
[ 2816.769484] 9pnet: flush 4 [5]done
[ 2846.327753] 9pnet: flushing 3
[ 2854.876131] 9pnet: flush 3 [4]done
[ 2856.492801] 9pnet: flushing 6
[ 2857.675642] 9pnet: flush 6 [1]done
[ 2860.051701] 9pnet: [ffff880113213000] delivery in 0, tag 1
[ 2860.052941] 9pnet: [ffff880113213000] late delivery, tag 1 already freed in IDR
[ 2860.680181] 9pnet: [ffff880113213000] using tag 1 with odd status (4)

This has hit between p9_free_req() and reallocating that request.

[ 2909.911815] 9pnet: [ffff880113213000] delivery in 4, tag 1
[ 2909.913145] 9pnet: [ffff880113213000] late delivery, tag 1 already freed in IDR

... while _this_ one has raced with p9_free_req() in a different way.

[ 2910.852202] 9pnet: flushing 3
[ 2917.985941] 9pnet: flush 3 [4]done
[ 2937.600652] 9pnet: flushing 2
[ 2939.775354] 9pnet: flush 2 [4]done
[ 2961.521600] 9pnet: [ffff880113213000] delivery in 0, tag 1
[ 2962.320383] 9pnet: [ffff880113213000] using tag 1 with odd status (4)

Same at the very first one.

[ 2962.320383] 9pnet: [ffff880113213000] delivery in 4, tag 8
[ 3001.578372] 9pnet: [ffff880113213000] delivery in 4, tag 6

Those had hit before p9_free_req().

AFAICS, we get occasional stray responses from somewhere.  And no, it doesn't
seem to be related to flushes or to dropping chan->lock in req_done() (this
run had been with chan->lock taken on the outside of the loop).

What I really don't understand is WTF is it playing with p9_tag_lookup() -
it's stashing req->tc via virtqueue_add_sgs() opaque data argument, fetches
it back in req_done(), then picks ->tag from it and uses p9_tag_lookup() to
find req.  Why not simply pass req instead?  I had been wrong about that
p9_tag_lookup() being able to return NULL, but why bother with it at all?
