The new adding address is marked SCTP_ADDR_NEW, and cannot use
in LKSCTP until received ASCONF-ACK and marked as SCTP_ADDR_SRC.
So, add this valid address list is unnecessary.

I guess you want to fix the route lookup issue?

If it is, the only thing we need to fix is the lookup of route. If we can not
found a valid dst for transport, we can try address marked with SCTP_ADDR_NEW.
