sctp: fix the length check in sctp_getsockopt_maxburst()
The code in sctp_getsockopt_maxburst() doesn't allow len to be larger then struct sctp_assoc_value, which is a common case where app writers just pass down the sizeof(buf) or something similar. This patch fix the problem. Signed-off-by: Wei Yongjun <yjwei@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
