From: Josef Bacik <jbacik@xxxxxx> A user reported that he was getting immediate disconnects with my sndtimeo patch applied. This is because by default the OSS nbd client doesn't set a timeout, so we end up setting the sndtimeo to 0, which of course means we have send errors a lot. Instead only set our sndtimeo if the user specified a timeout, otherwise we'll just wait forever like we did previously.
