I see, thanks for the explanation. But then why would iWarp transport
cares the 'backlog' while connection requests are also reported via a
callback? iw_cm_listen() allocates resources based on 'backlog' and I
saw this comment over it:

@backlog: The maximum number of outstanding un-accepted inbound listen
  requests to queue.
