    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.
