The consequence would be that if the CRQ Registration failed the first time
due to not enough resources, it would never try to reset and try again. 

If it fails due to any other error then it would just fail the sending of the
crq init message, thus it would just wait for the client to init, which would
never happen. 

We would also have a memory leak since in the error case DMA would never get
un-mapped and the message queue never gets freed.
