Good find.
Indeed, tc side is setup properly in p9_tag_alloc() but the rc side can
be left uninit.

Given we do initialize tc side perhaps it's best to initialize rc
similarly in p9_tag_alloc() (eh, there's also some initialization done
in p9pdu_reset that's not used anywhere else... this code could use some
cleanup too), but that's probably overoptimizing it, happy to roll with
that.

I'd appreciate if we could make these initial values something invalid
though -- there is no '0' value for id in the protocol so that one is
fine, but tag=0 is going to be very common so let's initialize it as
P9_NOTAG instead.

I'll move p9pdu_reset code to p9_fcall_init in a later non-fix commit
after you send v2.

Right there's been quite some rework there, the probe has been added at
this point and I believe the bug has always been present from a quick
look at the code so it's proably correct, but it might not be easy to
backport.
Let's leave it as is.

Thanks,
