Subject: [PATCH 78/80] staging: lustre: lnet: make connection more stable with packet loss

From: Alexander Boyko <alexander.boyko@...gate.com>

IB network may lose last connection handshake packet.
This problem isn't Lustre specific and described at
https://oss.oracle.com/pipermail/rds-devel/2007-December/000271.html
for example. Solution is to make conection established if any packet
is received for it.
