There is only one simultaneous rpc in flight for modifying operations
(like open, create, ..., the only exception is close that can be only one in
flight too). This is hardcoded at the moment for recovvery reasons.

This is for nonmodifying operations like getattr, lookup and so on at the
moment.

This is due to close which is rpc as well.
If you replace your open|creat with mknod - you will get RPC numbers
similar to mkdir (use dev_t 0 to create regular files).
