Since qemu 2.12 as a client always sends NBD_CMD_FLAG_REQ_ONE, and rejects a server that sends extra length, the upstream NBD spec will probably limit this behavior to clients that don't request REQ_ONE semantics; but it doesn't hurt to relax qemu to always be permissive of this server behavior, even if it continues to use REQ_ONE.
