Subject: [PATCH 0/2] net/9p: increase default msize

As previously discussed, many users are not aware about the 'msize' option
of the Linux 9p client and the negative impact it can have if its value is
too low. This series raises the default value for 'msize' from 8k to 128k.

Later on in separate series, the current capping of user supplied values for
'msize' of currently max. 512k should be addressed, which is likewise too
small: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2021-02/msg06343.html

Christian Schoenebeck (2):
  net/9p: use macro to define default msize
  net/9p: increase default msize to 128k
