[PATCH 2/2] net/9p: add a per-client fcall kmem_cache

[Dominique Martinet <asmadeus@codewreck.org>]

From: Dominique Martinet <dominique.martinet@cea.fr>

Having a specific cache for the fcall allocations helps speed up
allocations a bit, especially in case of non-"round" msizes.

The caches will automatically be merged if there are multiple caches
of items with the same size so we do not need to try to share a cache
between different clients of the same size.

Since the msize is negotiated with the server, only allocate the cache
after that negotiation has happened - previous allocations or
allocations of different sizes (e.g. zero-copy fcall) are made with
kmalloc directly.
