3.16.78-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Xin Long <lucien.xin@xxxxxxxxx> commit a1794de8b92ea6bc2037f445b296814ac826693e upstream. As the annotation says in sctp_do_8_2_transport_strike(): "If the transport error count is greater than the pf_retrans threshold, and less than pathmaxrtx ..." It should be transport->error_count checked with pathmaxrxt, instead of asoc->pf_retrans.
