write_mode is 0 for car2host transfers so yes, write_mode is 1.
During debug I tried with write_mode=1 and force=1 in all cases and it failed too.

I tried the elrpo 4.5.2 package without your patch and my test fails, sadly the src rpm from elrepo does not contaisn the kernel sources and I haven't looked how to get the proper tarball.
I tried to rebuild a src rpm for a fedora 24 (kernel 4.5.3) and it works without your patch. I'm not sure what differs in their config. I'll keep digging.
