Yes, if AR-AR resending is implemented, since AR will set a new AR-AR
resend timer when it receives a "new" request from MN. It should not do
the same for resends from MN for which it already has a timer.

If MN increases the sequence number for each resend, then AR needs
to be able to differentiate the new and resent messages by other fields. I
don't think this is a problem, though, since AR can just compare the
L2-ids of the messages.
