[openfabrics-ewg] [PATCH 2 of 2 IB/VNIC] Fix failover delay issue

[Ramachandra K]

Reduce the delay in failover from one path to another.
When a path is lost, the control and data connections of that path
are cleaned up. As part of this a DREQ was being sent and we waited
for a DREP. During this time the viport thread was blocked which delayed
sending of a CONFIG_LINK request to the VEx for the other path. Due
to this, there was considerable delay in the failover path becoming
active. To fix this, send a DREQ but do not wait for a DREP from
the VEx. We need not worry about a DREP because the VEx will anyway
terminate a connection if it does not receive heartbeats.
