Thanks, Sean!
The patch looks OK to me.
I hope to be able to test it Sunday/Monday.

Subject: [PATCH] ib/cm: fix stale connection detection

The ib_cm can incorrectly detect a stale connection (a new connection
request for a QPN that is already connected) as a duplicate connection
request.  Separate the handling of potential duplicate REQs from stale
connections.

Can you let me know if this fixes the issues for you?  I reworked the
code only to detect the stale connection properly.  More work is needed
to force the local QP into timewait if that is needed.  This would
likely require adding a new CM event to report that a stale connection
was detected on the QP.  Also, I left the duplicate request handling
as it was, since that should go in as a separate patch.
