Subject: 9p: fix bogus return code checks during initialization
From: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@xxxxxxxxx>

There is a simple logic error in init_v9fs - the return code checks are
reversed.  This patch fixes the return code and adds some messages to prevent
module initialization from failing silently.
