Not an issue for me - the pi is cheap enough that I consider it
essentially disposable, so I don't think twice about tinkering. But
since I was advising people to use turbo mode it seemed courteous
to mention the consequences.

Champion.
I have a Parallella, with a 7010, and a Epiphany-III. Was wondering if I'd
pull the finger out and port Plan 9, or even pay for it. Seems I might not
have to. There is also a SnowLEO SDR unit that uses a 7010 and a LimeMicro
chip (think BladeRF).

Basically, Plan 9 (kernel and applications) was designed and written for
multiprocessors,
and the kernel is written with pre-emptive concurrency in mind (rather
than, say, retrofitting
it all). That extends to the drivers and most platform-specific kernel code

instead of 18 bytes for some reason. try changeing the

uchar buf[Ddevlen+255];
to:
uchar buf[Ddevlen];
and see if you still get the short descriptor warning.

I was only listing the kernels still present in Plan 9.
The vt5 and ch kernels (and probably others) had
multiprocessing support as well.

They did not, one of the most common usages of the pi is to decode

This might be because the ethernet adapter uses USB which is taxing
