Unrelated, but.. won't stream_len overflow if stream_num >= 32768?
When called form sctp_send_reset_streams() I don't see anything
restricting it to such range.

Returning ENOMEM in the above error can be misleading. It's not that
we cannot allocate it, it's that it won't fit the packet no matter how
much memory we add to the system.
