The spec says that we need to ACK if we received AND processed a CCI

"4.5.4 Acknowledge Command Completion and/or Change Indication (R)
This command is used to acknowledge to the PPM that the OPM received and
processed a Command Completion and/or a Connector Change Indication."

And here in this case, we have received, but not processed the event.
So I'm not really sure what to do here in this case. If we don't send an 
ACK, then would the PPM think that OPM is not responding and reset it?
OR would it resend the previous event again since we didn't ACK?
