Christian Schoenebeck da9f2eda25 9pfs: clarify latency of v9fs_co_run_in_worker()
As we just fixed a severe performance issue with Treaddir request
handling, clarify this overall issue as a comment on
v9fs_co_run_in_worker() with the intention to hopefully prevent
such performance mistakes in future (and fixing other yet
outstanding ones).

/**
* we want to use bottom half because we want to make sure the below
* sequence of events.
*
* 1. Yield the coroutine in the QEMU thread.
* 2. Submit the coroutine to a worker thread.
* 3. Enter the coroutine in the worker thread.
* we cannot swap step 1 and 2, because that would imply worker thread
* can enter coroutine while step1 is still running
*
* @b PERFORMANCE @b CONSIDERATIONS: As a rule of thumb, keep in mind
* that hopping between threads adds @b latency! So when handling a
* 9pfs request, avoid calling v9fs_co_run_in_worker() too often, because
* this might otherwise sum up to a significant, huge overall latency for
* providing the response for just a single request. For that reason it
* is highly recommended to fetch all data from fs driver with a single
* fs driver request on a background I/O thread (bottom half) in one rush
* first and then eventually assembling the final response from that data
* on main I/O thread (top half).
