I'm no expert on SCTP events, but quick reading of SCTP docs tells me that
SCTP events are not happening on every packet.
They are ASSOC_CHANGE, PEER_ADDR_CHANGE, REMOTE_ERROR and such.
Does not look performance critical.

Just wondering, are you conducting further research on this topic?
Because we probably could use such review on SCTP stack.
Here is the list of sctp inlines which has any (however small)
benefit when deinlined.

For .c files, the patches are trivial and I have them auto-generated,
I'll send them to you privately to save you the mechanical work.
Unfortunately, for inlines in .h files this does not work
(a human is needed to decide where to more the function).
Of course, not every deinlining makes sense.
