net/9p: Use the tag name in the config space for identifying mount point
This patch use the tag name in the config space to identify the
mount device. The the virtio device name depend on the enumeration
order of the device and may not remain the same across multiple boots
So we use the tag name which is set via qemu option to uniquely identify
the mount device
