Hi Thomas,

it's been a while but I had a second look as I intend on submitting this
next week, just a small fixup on the Kconfig entry

I think that's just a copypaste leftover from NET_9P_VIRTIO ?
Since it used to be code within NET_9P and it's within a if NET_9P it
shouldn't depend on anything.

Also for compatibility I'd suggest we keep it on by default at this
point, e.g. add 'default NET_9P' to this block:


diff --git a/net/9p/Kconfig b/net/9p/Kconfig
index af601129f1bb..deabbd376cb1 100644

I'll just fixup the commit with a word in the message unless you have a
problem with it, please let me know! :)
