Attempting to connect three times may be insufficient after an initiator system that was using multiple RDMA channels tries to relogin. Additionally, this login retry mechanism is a workaround for particular behavior of the IB/CM. Since the srp_daemon retries a failed login attempt anyway, remove the stale connection retry mechanism.
