Subject: [PATCH 4.2.y-ckt 269/305] sctp: convert sack_needed and sack_generation to bits

4.2.8-ckt2 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

---8<------------------------------------------------------------

From: Marcelo Ricardo Leitner <marcelo.leitner@...il.com>

commit 38ee8fb67c3457f36f5137073c4b8ac2436d2393 upstream.

They don't need to be any bigger than that and with this we start a new
bitfield for tracking association runtime stuff, like zero window
situation.
