The reason for exporting v9fs_pack is because there is no abstraction of
blob in marshalling interface. We should fix marshalling functions
instead of leaking v9fs_pack to device.
As said in the commit message, with this change now we only need to
export v9fs_marshal and v9fs_unmarshal to device. That's a much cleaner
interface.
