The problem lies in check_write_rcs():

static int check_write_rcs(struct ptlrpc_request *req,
                           int requested_nob, int niocount,
                           obd_count page_count, struct brw_page **pga)
{
        int     i;   
        __u32   *remote_rcs;
...
        if (remote_rcs[i] < 0) 
                return(remote_rcs[i]);
        if (remote_rcs[i] != 0) { 
                CDEBUG(D_INFO, "rc[%d] invalid (%d) req %p\n",
                        i, remote_rcs[i], req);
                return(-EPROTO);
        }

The check remote_rcs[i] < 0 is always false since remote_rcs[i] is unsigned.
