[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 1/3] NBD proto: forbid TRIM command without negotiation

["Denis V. Lunev" <den@openvz.org>]

From: Pavel Borzenkov <pborzenkov@virtuozzo.com>

There is a loophole in the protocol that allows a client to send TRIM
request even if support for it wasn't negotiated with the server. State
explicitly that the client MUST NOT send such command without prior
successful negotiation.
