When using the 9P2000.u version of the protocol, the following shell
command line in the guest can cause QEMU to crash:
while true; do rm -rf aa; mkdir -p a/b & touch a/b/c & mv a aa; done
With 9P2000.u, file renaming is handled by the WSTAT command. The
v9fs_wstat() function calls v9fs_complete_rename(), which calls
v9fs_fix_path() for every fid whose path is affected by the change.
The involved calls to v9fs_path_copy() may race with any other access
to the fid path performed by some worker thread, causing a crash like
shown below:

The fix is to take the path write lock when calling v9fs_complete_rename(),
like in v9fs_rename().
Impact: DoS triggered by unprivileged guest users.
