Yes it's a little different.
I don't see any ill effects of doing this, other than we may wait for a little longer on a full credit to send the whole packet. In practice the server always offers a full credit on the first call to wait_mtu_credits(), I am yet to see the while loop actually get looped.
The resend path is rarely getting hit in stress tests on TCP, I estimate maybe less than 0.001% on my test setup, the while loop for waiting credits is ever harder to hit that I never see one.
On RDMA, the resend path is never used.
