Currently the completer tasklet when retransmit timer or the rnr timer fires the same flag (qp->req.need_retry) is set so that if either timer fires it will attempt to perform a retry flow on the send queue. This has the effect of responding to an RNR NAK at the first retransmit timer event which might not allow the requested rnr timeout. This patch adds a new flag (qp->req.wait_for_rnr_timer) which, if set, prevents a retry flow until the rnr nak timer fires. This patch fixes rnr retry errors which can be observed by running the pyverbs test_rdmacm_async_traffic_external_qp multiple times. With this patch applied they do not occur.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
