I think there's no need to mention the specific operations. FWIW,
blkback will return BLKIF_RSP_EOPNOTSUPP for any request type it
doesn't understand (see dispatch_other_io()), which covers any
possible request type that's not yet defined:

/* Operation not supported. */
#define BLKIF_RSP_EOPNOTSUPP  -2

Should be fine.

Thanks, Roger.
