Looks good. I haven't looked at the back-off mechanism; I presume there's
something to ensure that the system won't be pounding on this codepath if
clnt_dispatch_send() fails. A couple nits:
usr/src/uts/common/rpc/clnt_cots.c:
* 400: Could probably remove the whitespace after "static int"
and remove the need for the linewrap to 401.
* 1086, 2537, 2709: Seems like this failure should be observable
somehow -- e.g., DTrace SDT probe or the like.
* 1087: Blank line seems needless.
