[ Upstream commit e5c5f3596de224422561d48eba6ece5210d967b3 ]

This is an effort to get rid of all multiplications from allocation
functions in order to prevent integer overflows [1][2].

As the "ids" variable is a pointer to "struct sctp_assoc_ids" and this
structure ends in a flexible array:

struct sctp_assoc_ids {
	[...]
	sctp_assoc_t	gaids_assoc_id[];
};

the preferred way in the kernel is to use the struct_size() helper to
do the arithmetic instead of the calculation "size + size * count" in
the kmalloc() function.

Also, refactor the code adding the "ids_size" variable to avoid sizing
twice.

This way, the code is more readable and safer.

This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle, and audited and
modified manually.

[ Upstream commit 05d6d492097c55f2d153fc3fd33cbe78e1e28e0a ]

I added dst_rt6_info() in commit
e8dfd42c17fa ("ipv6: introduce dst_rt6_info() helper")

This patch does a similar change for IPv4.

Instead of (struct rtable *)dst casts, we can use :

 #define dst_rtable(_ptr) \
             container_of_const(_ptr, struct rtable, dst)

Patch is smaller than IPv6 one, because IPv4 has skb_rtable() helper.

In case of GSO, 'chunk-&gt;skb' pointer may point to an entry from
fraglist created in 'sctp_packet_gso_append()'. To avoid freeing
random fraglist entry (and so undefined behavior and/or memory
leak), introduce 'sctp_inq_chunk_free()' helper to ensure that
'chunk-&gt;skb' is set to 'chunk-&gt;head_skb' (i.e. fraglist head)
before calling 'sctp_chunk_free()', and use the aforementioned
helper in 'sctp_inq_pop()' as well.

For some reason sctp_poll() generates EPOLLERR if sk-&gt;sk_error_queue
is not empty but recvmsg() can not drain the error queue yet.

This is needed to better support timestamping.

I had to export inet_recv_error(), since sctp
can be compiled as a module.

For some reason sctp_poll() generates EPOLLERR if sk-&gt;sk_error_queue
is not empty but recvmsg() can not drain the error queue yet.
