I suppose you are referring to this:
https://9p.io/sources/plan9/sys/src/cmd/unix/u9fs/LICENSE
This is an old license that was used by Lucent to share software
such as AWK, sam, u9fs, etc. as part of the Netlib collection.
This license was quite permissive and similar to the MIT license.
You can ignore this file and consider u9fs is distributed under MIT.
