This also reveals that I missed NBD_REQUEST_MAGIC (needs to go,

unrelated here.
I've been trying to make sense of that merge myself. Is the right
solution that I should just drop 32ba63d4b2e1a ? Manfred, thoughts
on that?
That'd certainly be a viable option too.
OK, I have dropped the conflicting patch. Manfred, if there are changes there that still need to get in, please resubmit that part and we'll get it done.
Dropping is the correct approach:
The values are part of the line protocol, and thus according to the
current definition not in scope.
In theory, the change in include/uapi/linux/nbd.h is still useful, but I
do not think that this is worth the effort.
