[PATCH v2] RDMA/cma: Make CM response timeout and # CM retries configurable

From: HÃkon Bugge
Date: Tue Feb 26 2019 - 02:57:50 EST


During certain workloads, the default CM response timeout is too
short, leading to excessive retries. Hence, make it configurable
through sysctl. While at it, also make number of CM retries
configurable.

The defaults are not changed.
