[PATCH] nbd: Check magic before doing anything else

From: Michal Feix
Date: Sun Jul 16 2006 - 09:09:21 EST


We should check magic sequence in reply packet before trying to find
request with it's request handle. This also solves the problem with
"Unexpected reply" message beeing logged, when packet with invalid magic
is received.
