dccp: fix return value for sequence-invalid packets
Currently dccp_check_seqno returns 0 (indicating a valid packet) if the acknowledgment number is out of bounds and the sync that RFC 4340 mandates at this point is currently being rate-limited. This function should return -1, indicating an invalid packet. Signed-off-by: Samuel Jero <sj323707@ohio.edu> Acked-by: Gerrit Renker <gerrit@erg.abdn.ac.uk>
