Subject: [GIT PULL] 9p fixes for 6.19-rc1

Hi Linus,

I probably sat too long on Tingmao's O_APPEND fix, but here's this merge
window's batch.
There's another bug open with loopback mount on virtio that probably
will have a fix soon so I'll likely send another PR with just that in
~1-2 weeks.

Thanks!

  9p: fix new mount API cache option handling (2025-12-05 12:54:05 +0000)

----------------------------------------------------------------
- fix a bug with O_APPEND in cached mode causing data to be written multiple times on server
- use kvmalloc for trans_fd to avoid problems with large msize and fragmented memory
This should hopefully be used in more transports when time allows
- convert to new mount API
- minor cleanups
