FYI, you can run:

  modprobe -a 9p 9pnet fscache ..

and save yourself some forks.

My fault for suggesting a rotten name. You can't start a function name
with a number.

$ 9p() { echo hi; }
ash: syntax error: bad function name

Parsing failed on sourcing the hook, and mount_handler was never
declared. Rename the function to something that ash plays nicely with
and you should get some joy.
