Subject: [PATCH] SCTP: Fix kernel panic while received AUTH chunk while enabled
 auth

If STCP is started while /proc/sys/net/sctp/auth_enable is set 0 and 
association is established between endpoints. Then if 
/proc/sys/net/sctp/auth_enable is set 1, a received AUTH chunk will 
cause kernel panic.

Test as following:
step 1: echo 0> /proc/sys/net/sctp/auth_enable
step 2:

    SCTP client                  SCTP server
       INIT          --------->
                     <---------   INIT-ACK
       COOKIE-ECHO   --------->
                     <---------   COOKIE-ACK
step 3:
     echo 1> /proc/sys/net/sctp/auth_enable
step 4:
    SCTP client                  SCTP server
        AUTH        ----------->

Then kernel panic.
