The NBD protocol just relaxed the requirements on
NBD_OPT_LIST_META_CONTEXT:

Since listing is not stateful (unlike SET_META_CONTEXT), we don't care

replies. Well-behaved clients will still ask for structured reply
first (if for no other reason than for back-compat to older servers),
but that's no reason to avoid this change.
