I could move the user copy out of sctp_setsockopt_bindx and reuse that, but it is a rather rcane API. > > This patch will conflict with David's one, > [PATCH net-next] sctp: Pull the user copies out of the individual sockopt functions.

We generally only add operations for things that we actually use. bind_del is another logical op, but we can trivially add that when we need it.
