If you look at the kernel code, the NBD_CMD_INFLIGHT command flag is cleared when a command times out: https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/0cdd776ec92c0fec768c7079331804d3e52d4b27/drivers/block/nbd.c#L407 That's the place where it would have printed the "Possible stuck request" message. Some time later, nbdkit actually replies to the message (for the first and only time) and in that code the flag is checked and found to be clear already, causing the "Suspicious reply" message to be printed: https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/0cdd776ec92c0fec768c7079331804d3e52d4b27/drivers/block/nbd.c#L749 I'd say you need to increase the timeout and/or work out why the S3 plugin is taking so long to respond.
