The patch that introduced this behavior contained a minor error: we
should check against

credits = server->ops->get_credits_field(server, optype);

not

server->credits.

There is absolutely no harm in that: the only possible operation that
has different optype is oplock/lease break, it consumes 1 request
(num=1) and there is no way that server->credits = 0 (normal bucket),
server->oplock_credits = 1 (oplock bucket) and server->in_flight = 0 -
credits are re-balanced every time we don't have requests in flight
and are moved from the oplock bucket to the normal bucket.

But it would be nice to fix that. Can you squash the fix into this patch please?

Other than the minor comment above, the patchset looks good. Thanks!
