<nod>, I noticed that as well during recent debugging.

However, AFAICT the RDMA_CM_EVENT_TIMEWAIT_EVENT doesn't (always) occur
on the target side after a RDMA_CM_EVENT_DISCONNECTED, and thus far I've
not been able to ascertain what's different about the shutdown sequence
that would make this happen, or not happen..

Any ideas..?
