From: Vu Pham <vuhu...@mellanox.com>
Allow the InfiniBand RC retry count to be configured by the user
as an option in the target login string. The transport layer
timeout in nanoseconds is computed as follows from the retry count:
rc_timeout = rc_retry_count * 4 * 4096 * (1 << qp->timeout)
The default value for tl_retry_count is changed from 7 into 2.
Hence with a qp->timedout value of 19 this patch reduces the
default transport layer timeout from about 60s to about 17s. The
purpose of this patch is to reduce the time needed for SCSI error
handling significantly and at the same time to avoid activating
the SCSI error handler on an IB path with a regular BER or due to
brief IB network congestion.
