During the INIT/COOKIE-ACK collision cases, it's possible to get
into a situation where the association id is not yet set at the time
of the user event generation. As a result, user events have an
association id set to 0 which will confuse applications.
This happens if we hit case B of duplicate cookie processing.
In the particular example found and provided by Oscar Isaula
<Oscar.Isaula@motorola.com>, flow looks like this:
A B
---- INIT-------> (lost)
<---------INIT------
---- INIT-ACK--->
<------ Cookie ECHO
When the Cookie Echo is received, we end up trying to update the
association that was created on A as a result of the (lost) INIT,
but that association doesn't have the ID set yet.

argument stored for SCTP_CMD_INIT_FAILED is always __be16
(protocol error). Introduced new field and accessor for
it (SCTP_PERR()); switched to their use (from SCTP_U32() and
.u32)

On ia64, it is possible to get NaT Consumption Fault and a kernel panic
when initializing sctp sideeffect commands arguments. The union
sctp_arg_t contains different sized elements and when loading a smaller
sized element (32 or 16 bits), it is possible for a speculative load to
fail and result in a NaT bit set which causes a kernel crash. The easy
way to get around it is to load the largerst member of the union.

Implements sctp_connectx() as defined in the SCTP sockets API draft by
tunneling the request through a setsockopt().

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
