staging: lustre: lnet: Stop Infinite CON RACE Condition In current code, when a CON RACE occurs, the passive side will let the node with the higher NID value win the race. We have a field case where a node can have a "stuck" connection which never goes away and is the trigger of a never-ending loop of re-connections. This patch introduces a counter to how many times a connection in a connecting state has been the cause of a CON RACE rejection. After 20 times (constant MAX_CONN_RACES_BEFORE_ABORT), we assume the connection is stuck and let the other side (with lower NID) win.
