when I modprobe sctp_probe, it failed with "FATAL: ". I found that
sctp should load before sctp_probe register jprobe. So I add a
sctp_setup_jprobe for loading 'sctp' when first failed to register
jprobe, just do this similar to dccp_probe.

You need to check the return code of request_module.  if sctp.ko doesn't exist,
you'll hit exactly the same problem.

You might consider also adding a MODULE_SOFTDEP macro in to the patch, so that
the dependency is clearly visible in userspace to modprobe.

Thanks for your suggestions. I will fix it.

Regards.
Wang
