One question from one of my customers : why am I the only one to
complain about that problem ? 
I know that Ceph users often use qemu/librbd instead of kernel client,
but what is the trigger of those «race condition» ? Having "multiple
requests" per RBD image ? It should be a normal use, no ?

If someone can help me give an explanation, thanks :)
