* -otrans=tcp with IPv6 address?

It seems like it isn’t currently possible to mount using an IPv6 address
and -otrans=tcp.

I think the issue is in p9_fd_create_tcp in net/9p/trans_fd.c as it only
validates IPv4 addresses and returns EINVAL otherwise.

Thanks,

Right, the current workaround is to open a socket before calling mount
and pass that socket with trans=fd

I haven't had time to do anything about this for ages, but patches are
welcome!

I haven’t done kernel development before, but I’ll see if I can put
something together.
