If the peer restart the asoc, we should not only fail any unsent/unacked
data, but also stop the T3-rtx, SACK, T4-rto timers, and teardown ASCONF
queues.

If an ASCONF chunk is outstanding, then the following ASCONF
chunk will be queued for later transmission. But when we free
the asoc, we forget to free the ASCONF queue at the same time,
this will cause memory leak.

<title>net: convert %p usage to %pK</title>

<id>71338aa7d050c86d8765cd36e46be514fb0ebbce</id>
<content type='text'>
The %pK format specifier is designed to hide exposed kernel pointers,
specifically via /proc interfaces.  Exposing these pointers provides an
easy target for kernel write vulnerabilities, since they reveal the
locations of writable structures containing easily triggerable function
pointers.  The behavior of %pK depends on the kptr_restrict sysctl.

If kptr_restrict is set to 0, no deviation from the standard %p behavior
occurs.  If kptr_restrict is set to 1, the default, if the current user
(intended to be a reader via seq_printf(), etc.) does not have CAP_SYSLOG
(currently in the LSM tree), kernel pointers using %pK are printed as 0's.
 If kptr_restrict is set to 2, kernel pointers using %pK are printed as
0's regardless of privileges.  Replacing with 0's was chosen over the
default "(null)", which cannot be parsed by userland %p, which expects
"(nil)".

The supporting code for kptr_restrict and %pK are currently in the -mm
tree.  This patch converts users of %p in net/ to %pK.  Cases of printing
pointers to the syslog are not covered, since this would eliminate useful
information for postmortem debugging and the reading of the syslog is
already optionally protected by the dmesg_restrict sysctl.

During the sctp_close() call, we do not use rcu primitives to
destroy the address list attached to the endpoint.  At the same
time, we do the removal of addresses from this list before
attempting to remove the socket from the port hash

As a result, it is possible for another process to find the socket
in the port hash that is in the process of being closed.  It then
proceeds to traverse the address list to find the conflict, only
to have that address list suddenly disappear without rcu() critical
section.

Fix issue by closing address list removal inside RCU critical
section.

Race can result in a kernel crash with general protection fault or
kernel NULL pointer dereference:

Use memset to ensure padding is also zeroed so
