9p: getattr client implementation for 9P2000.L protocol.

        SYNOPSIS

              size[4] Tgetattr tag[2] fid[4] request_mask[8]

              size[4] Rgetattr tag[2] lstat[n]

           DESCRIPTION

              The getattr transaction inquires about the file identified by fid.
              request_mask is a bit mask that specifies which fields of the
              stat structure is the client interested in.

              The reply will contain a machine-independent directory entry,
              laid out as follows:

                 st_result_mask[8]

        This patch implements the client side of getattr implementation for
        9P2000.L. It introduces a new structure p9_stat_dotl for getting
        Linux stat information along with QID. The data layout is similar to
        stat structure in Linux user space with the following major
        differences:

        inode (st_ino) is not part of data. Instead qid is.

        device (st_dev) is not part of data because this doesn't make sense
        on the client.

        All time variables are 64 bit wide on the wire. The kernel seems to use
        32 bit variables for these variables. However, some of the architectures
        have used 64 bit variables and glibc exposes 64 bit variables to user
        space on some architectures. Hence to be on the safer side we have made
        these 64 bit in the protocol. Refer to the comments in
        include/asm-generic/stat.h

        There are some additional fields: st_btime_sec, st_btime_nsec, st_gen,
        st_data_version apart from the bitmask, st_result_mask. The bit mask
        is filled by the server to indicate which stat fields have been
        populated by the server. Currently there is no clean way for the
        server to obtain these additional fields, so it sends back just the
        basic fields.
