Yes, you'd be reading zeroes without that patch because the netfs code
thinks the file has 0 size and doesn't bother reading, that'd explain
the exec format error loading other modules...

One thing that surprised me is that this also affects cache=none, I
thought we had different file ops going straight to p9_client_read in
this case?
But turning my brain on this would be the read-only mmap case that we
need to support for execs, which module loading also uses, so this came
biting there alright.
