Ok. I missed this commit b8e69066d8afa8d2670dc697252ff0e5907aafad
earlier which says that the r_stamp is used as ctime now.
I had assumed that this is a message timestamp.

I was not able to find any documentation on what the server does
with the message sent by the client. Where can I find that?

So, this should actually look like

req->r_stamp = current_fs_time(mdsc->fsc->sb);

Let me know if you want me to resend.
