For what it's worth I've also tested a version of your patch:

-----
diff --git a/fs/9p/vfs_addr.c b/fs/9p/vfs_addr.c

 	refcount_inc(&fid->count);
 	rreq->netfs_priv = fid;
 	return 0;

And this also seems to work alright.

I was about to ask why the original code did writes with the writeback
fid, but I'm noticing now the current code still does (through
v9fs_vfs_write_folio_locked()), so that part hasn't changed from the old
code, and init_request will only be getting reads? Which actually makes
sense now I'm thinking about it because I recall David saying he's
working on netfs writes now...

So that minimal version is probably what we want, give or take style
adjustments (only initializing inode/v9inode in the if case or not) -- I
sure hope compilers optimizes it away when not needed.


I'll let you test one or both versions and will fixup the commit message
again/credit you/resend if we go with this version, unless you want to
send it.
