For the moment the returned value just happens to be correct because the current backchannel server implementation does not vary the number of credits it offers. The spec does permit this value to change during the lifetime of a connection, however. The actual maximum is fixed for all RPC/RDMA transports, because each transport instance has to pre-allocate the resources for processing BC requests. That's the value that should be returned.
