WR(Work Requests )always generate a WC(Work Completion) with
signaled send. Default RDS ib code is setup for un-signaled
completion. Since RDS connction is persistent, we can end up
sending the data even after large-send when the remote end is
not active(for any reason).
By doing a signaled send at least once per large-send,
we can at least detect the problem in work completion
handler there by avoiding sending more data to
inactive remote.
