Subject: ipv6: sctp: add rcu protection around np->opt
From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit c836a8ba93869d6a0290a6ae0047fbef09066871 upstream.
This patch completes the work I did in commit 45f6fad84cc3
("ipv6: add complete rcu protection around np->opt"), as I missed
sctp part.
This simply makes sure np->opt is used with proper RCU locking
and accessors.
