Currently p9fs mounts (available behind the falcon feature) are read only. Having read/write mounts would be very nice for a number of falcon/testbed use cases.

Research direction
Start by locating the p9fs mount implementation and the code behind the falcon feature; determine how read-only mounts are configured and where related tests live. Done means p9fs mounts can support writes for the stated falcon/testbed use cases, with coverage for the new behavior.
