something doesn't feel at all right about this. If we are inserting a transport
to an association, it would seem to me that we should have at least one user of
the association (i.e. non-zero refcount). As such it seems something is wrong
with the association refcount here. At the very least, if there is a case where
an association is being removed while a transport is being added, the better
solution would be to ensure that sctp_association_destroy goes through a
quiescent point prior to unhashing transports from the list, to ensure that
there is no conflict with the add operation above.
