The patch looks good to me. It would need to be rebased when you have fixed
the potential kfree() of stale data in patch 1. Either with an extra goto
label in p9_tag_alloc or by turning p9_fcall_alloc into p9_fcall_alloc_sdata,
both solutions are equivalent.
Just one suggestion, see below.

This is a presumably hot path for any request but the initial TVERSION,
you probably want likely() here...
