    net/smc: longer delay when freeing client link groups · 7f58a1ad
    Ursula Braun authored
    Client link group creation always follows the server linkgroup creation.
    If peer creates a new server link group, client has to create a new
    client link group. If peer reuses a server link group for a new
    connection, client has to reuse its client link group as well. To
    avoid out-of-sync conditions for link groups a longer delay for
    for client link group removal is defined to make sure this link group
    still exists, once the peer decides to reuse a server link group.
    
    Currently the client link group delay time is just 10 jiffies larger
    than the server link group delay time. This patch increases the delay
    difference to 10 seconds to have a better protection against
    out-of-sync link groups.
