I think this existing is just a mess, can we fix it properly?

What this code wants to do is to have rxe_resp_info allocate a
rxe_recv_wqe and have a maximum size of its flex array pre-allocated.

Probably like this, though maybe we need a FLEX version of the
INIT_RDMA_OBJ_SIZE macro to make it safer.

Zhu, this seems like a good thing for you to look at?
