Now in the end of sctp_outq_flush, sctp calls sctp_packet_transmit in a loop. The return of current sctp_packet_transmit always covers the prior one's. If the last call of sctp_packet_transmit return a success, it may hide the error that returns from the prior call. This patch is to fix this by keeping the old error until the new error returns from sctp_packet_transmit. Did TAHI test against this fix, no regression is found.
