Fix race issue in fid contention.

Eric's and Greg's patch offer a mechanism to fix open-unlink-f*syscall
bug in 9p. But there is race issue in fid parallel accesses.
As Greg's patch stores all of fids from opened files into according inode,
so all the lookup fid ops can retrieve fid from inode preferentially. But
there is no mechanism to handle the fid contention issue. For example,
there are two threads get the same fid in the same time and one of them
clunk the fid before the other thread ready to discard the fid. In this
scenario, it will lead to some fatal problems, even kernel core dump.

I introduce a mechanism to fix this race issue. A counter field introduced
into p9_fid struct to store the reference counter to the fid. When a fid
is allocated from the inode or dentry, the counter will increase, and
will decrease at the end of its occupation. It is guaranteed that the
fid won't be clunked before the reference counter go down to 0, then
we can avoid the clunked fid to be used.

tests:
race issue test from the old test case:
for file in {01..50}; do touch f.${file}; done
seq 1 1000 | xargs -n 1 -P 50 -I{} cat f.* &gt; /dev/null

open-unlink-f*syscall test:
I have tested for f*syscall include: ftruncate fstat fchown fchmod faccessat.

Fixes several outstanding bug reports of not being able to getattr from an
open file after an unlink.  This patch cleans up transient fids on an unlink
and will search open fids on a client if it detects a dentry that appears to
have been unlinked.  This search is necessary because fstat does not pass fd
information through the VFS API to the filesystem, only the dentry which for
9p has an imperfect match to fids.

Inherent in this patch is also a fix for the qid handling on create/open
which apparently wasn't being set correctly and was necessary for the search
to succeed.

A possible optimization over this fix is to include accounting of open fids
with the inode in the private data (in a similar fashion to the way we track
transient fids with dentries).  This would allow a much quicker search for
a matching open fid.

(changed v9fs_fid_find_global to v9fs_fid_find_inode in comment)

<title>net: 9p: initialize sun_server.sun_path to have addr's value only when addr is valid</title>

<content type='text'>
In p9_fd_create_unix, checking is performed to see if the addr (passed
as an argument) is NULL or not.
However, no check is performed to see if addr is a valid address, i.e.,
it doesn't entirely consist of only 0's.
The initialization of sun_server.sun_path to be equal to this faulty
addr value leads to an uninitialized variable, as detected by KMSAN.
Checking for this (faulty addr) and returning a negative error number
appropriately, resolves this issue.
