However, kernel support for this hasn't landed, the kernel counterpart
patches add definitions but don't actually implement the code. BY the
looks of it it would seem that the proper send stream versioning could
be added first before any of this code lands. In this case we can simply
have the encoded writes stuff as protocol version 2 and leave the rest
of the commands for v3 for example.
