Gotcha! That's pretty much it then. From that point of view now, there
shouldn't be a case that it returns _ABORT without freeing the asoc in
the same loop. (more below)

Yup, that's correct. I just tried to reference one case on which it
would return _ABORT without issuing any of those _FAILEDs before doing
so (meaning the association could still be valid) but that in that case,
the asoc was already NULL.

Dmitry, please give this one a run, as I still cannot reproduce your use
case..

    sctp: fix use-after-free in pr_debug statement
    
    Dmitry Vyukov reported a use-after-free in the code expanded by the
    macro debug_post_sfx, which is caused by the use of the asoc pointer
    after it was freed within sctp_side_effect() scope.
    
    This patch fixes it by allowing sctp_side_effect to clear that asoc
    pointer when the TCB is freed.
    
    As Vlad explained, we also have to cover the SCTP_DISPOSITION_ABORT case
    because it will trigger DELETE_TCB too on that same loop.
    
    The macro is already prepared to handle such NULL pointer.
