It appears then that given max_cm_retries, remote_cm_response_timeout, 
and primary_path->packet_life_time (or local_ack_timeout), the CM can 
issue retries automatically for the user.  Does this sound correct?

I will plan on having the code issues retries.  (I'm assuming that the 
Topspin CM does this, which is where I'm planning on pulling code over 
from.)
