9pfs: fix crash in v9fs_walk()
v9fs_walk() utilizes the v9fs_co_run_in_worker({...}) macro to run the supplied fs driver code block on a background worker thread. When either the 'Twalk' client request was interrupted or if the client requested fid for that 'Twalk' request caused a stat error then that fs driver code block was left by 'break' keyword, with the intention to return from worker thread back to main thread as well: v9fs_co_run_in_worker({ if (v9fs_request_cancelled(pdu)) { err = -EINTR; break; } err = s->ops->lstat(&s->ctx, &dpath, &fidst); if (err < 0) { err = -errno; break; } ... }); However that 'break;' statement also skipped the v9fs_co_run_in_worker() macro's final and mandatory /* re-enter back to qemu thread */ qemu_coroutine_yield(); call and thus caused the rest of v9fs_walk() to be continued being executed on the worker thread instead of main thread, eventually leading to a crash in the transport virtio transport driver. To fix this issue and to prevent the same error from happening again by other users of v9fs_co_run_in_worker() in future, auto wrap the supplied code block into its own do { } while (0); loop inside the 'v9fs_co_run_in_worker' macro definition.
