From: Petr Malat <oss@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit b6df8c81412190fbd5eaa3cec7f642142d9c16cd ] Commit 978aa0474115 ("sctp: fix some type cast warnings introduced since very beginning")' broke err reading from sctp_arg, because it reads the value as 32-bit integer, although the value is stored as 16-bit integer. Later this value is passed to the userspace in 16-bit variable, thus the user always gets 0 on big-endian platforms. Fix it by reading the __u16 field of sctp_arg union, as reading err field would produce a sparse warning.
