Subject: netfilter 24/29: nf_conntrack_proto_sctp: avoid bogus warning

commit 328bd8997dbb7184d5389e45c642af44ae6e9043
Author: Patrick McHardy <kaber@...sh.net>
Date:   Mon Nov 24 13:44:55 2008 +0100

    netfilter: nf_conntrack_proto_sctp: avoid bogus warning
    
    net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_proto_sctp.c: In function 'sctp_packet':
    net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_proto_sctp.c:376: warning: array subscript is above array bounds
    
    gcc doesn't realize that do_basic_checks() guarantees that there is
    at least one valid chunk and thus new_state is never SCTP_CONNTRACK_MAX
    after the loop. Initialize to SCTP_CONNTRACK_NONE to avoid the warning.
    
    Based on patch by Wu Fengguang <wfg@...ux.intel.com>
    
    Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@...sh.net>
