peer.transport_addr_list is currently only protected by sk_sock
which is inpractical to acquire for procfs dumping purposes.

This patch adds RCU protection allowing for the procfs readers to
enter RCU read-side critical sections.

Modification of the list continues to be serialized via sk_lock.

V2: Use list_del_rcu() in sctp_association_free() to be safe
    Skip transports marked dead when dumping for procfs

<title>sctp: Add support to per-association statistics via a new SCTP_GET_ASSOC_STATS call</title>

<id>196d67593439b03088913227093e374235596e33</id>
<content type='text'>
The current SCTP stack is lacking a mechanism to have per association
statistics. This is an implementation modeled after OpenSolaris'
SCTP_GET_ASSOC_STATS.

Userspace part will follow on lksctp if/when there is a general ACK on
this.
V4:
- Move ipackets++ before q-&gt;immediate.func() for consistency reasons
- Move sctp_max_rto() at the end of sctp_transport_update_rto() to avoid
  returning bogus RTO values
- return asoc-&gt;rto_min when max_obs_rto value has not changed

V3:
- Increase ictrlchunks in sctp_assoc_bh_rcv() as well
- Move ipackets++ to sctp_inq_push()
- return 0 when no rto updates took place since the last call

V2:
- Implement partial retrieval of stat struct to cope for future expansion
- Kill the rtxpackets counter as it cannot be precise anyway
- Rename outseqtsns to outofseqtsns to make it clearer that these are out
  of sequence unexpected TSNs
- Move asoc-&gt;ipackets++ under a lock to avoid potential miscounts
- Fold asoc-&gt;opackets++ into the already existing asoc check
- Kill unneeded (q-&gt;asoc) test when increasing rtxchunks
- Do not count octrlchunks if sending failed (SCTP_XMIT_OK != 0)
- Don't count SHUTDOWNs as SACKs
- Move SCTP_GET_ASSOC_STATS to the private space API
- Adjust the len check in sctp_getsockopt_assoc_stats() to allow for
  future struct growth
- Move association statistics in their own struct
- Update idupchunks when we send a SACK with dup TSNs
- return min_rto in max_rto when RTO has not changed. Also return the
  transport when max_rto last changed.

<title>sctp: Make hmac algorithm selection for cookie generation dynamic</title>

<id>3c68198e75111a905ac2412be12bf7b29099729b</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently sctp allows for the optional use of md5 of sha1 hmac algorithms to
generate cookie values when establishing new connections via two build time
config options.  Theres no real reason to make this a static selection.  We can
add a sysctl that allows for the dynamic selection of these algorithms at run
time, with the default value determined by the corresponding crypto library
availability.
This comes in handy when, for example running a system in FIPS mode, where use
of md5 is disallowed, but SHA1 is permitted.

Note: This new sysctl has no corresponding socket option to select the cookie
hmac algorithm.  I chose not to implement that intentionally, as RFC 6458
contains no option for this value, and I opted not to pollute the socket option
namespace.

Change notes:
v2)
	* Updated subject to have the proper sctp prefix as per Dave M.
	* Replaced deafult selection options with new options that allow
	  developers to explicitly select available hmac algs at build time
	  as per suggestion by Vlad Y.

<title>sctp: check src addr when processing SACK to update transport state</title>

Suppose we have an SCTP connection with two paths. After connection is
established, path1 is not available, thus this path is marked as inactive. Then
traffic goes through path2, but for some reasons packets are delayed (after
rto.max). Because packets are delayed, the retransmit mechanism will switch
again to path1. At this time, we receive a delayed SACK from path2. When we
update the state of the path in sctp_check_transmitted(), we do not take into
account the source address of the SACK, hence we update the wrong path.
