The purpose of virtio-9p-test is to test the virtio-9p device, especially
the 9p server state machine. We don't really care what fsdev backend we're
using. Moreover, if we want to be able to test the flush request or a
device reset with in-flights I/O, it is close to impossible to achieve
with a physical backend because we cannot ask it reliably to put an I/O
on hold at a specific point in time.
Fortunately, we can do that with the synthetic backend, which allows to
register callbacks on read/write accesses to a specific file. This will
be used by a later patch to test the 9P flush request.
The walk request test is converted to using the synth backend.
