When client sent a 9p Tgetattr request then the wrong I/O block size value was returned by 9p server; instead of host file system's I/O block size it should rather return an I/O block size according to 9p session's 'msize' value, because the value returned to client should be an "optimum" block size for I/O (i.e. to maximize performance), it should not reflect the actual physical block size of the underlying storage media.
The I/O block size of a host filesystem is typically 4k, so the value returned was far too low for good 9p I/O performance. This patch adds stat_to_iounit() with a similar approach as the existing get_iounit() function.
