Subject: [net-next][PATCH v3 07/17] RDS: RDMA: return appropriate error on rdma map failures

The first message to a remote node should prompt a new
connection even if it is RDMA operation. For RDMA operation
the MR mapping can fail because connections is not yet up.

Since the connection establishment is asynchronous,
we make sure the map failure because of unavailable
connection reach to the user by appropriate error code.
Before returning to the user, lets trigger the connection
so that its ready for the next retry.
