Subject: [PATCH v2 0/4] net/9p: optimize transport module loading

This is a continuation of the single patch
"net/9p: autoload transport modules".

Patch 1 is a cleaned up version of the original patch.

Patch 2 splits the filedescriptor-based transports into their own module.

Patch 3 adds autoloading for the xen transport. Please note that this is
completely untested, but other xenbus drivers do the same.

Patch 4 adds some fallback transport loading from modules if none is usable at
the moment.

Changes since v1:
( https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20211017134611.4330-1-linux@weissschuh.net/ )

* Fix warnings
* Split FD transport into its own module
* Autoload xen transport when xenbus device is present
* Load transports from modules when none is specified and loaded

Thomas Weißschuh (4):
  net/9p: autoload transport modules
  9p/trans_fd: split into dedicated module
  9p/xen: autoload when xenbus service is available
  net/p9: load default transports
