I have changed to code to disconnect RDMA connection on QP errors.

This part is reworked in V3 to behave as you suggested.

I have moved them to separate completion queues in V3.

Those have been fixed. On Mellanox ConnectX3, the attrs.max_qp_rd_atom is 16. So I choose a default value 32 to work with hardware that can potentially support more responder resources.
