Subject: sctp: fix BH handling on socket backlog

From: Marcelo Ricardo Leitner <marcelo.leitner@gmail.com>

[ Upstream commit eefc1b1d105ee4d2ce907833ce675f1e9599b5e3 ]

Now that the backlog processing is called with BH enabled, we have to
disable BH before taking the socket lock via bh_lock_sock() otherwise
it may dead lock:

sctp_backlog_rcv()
                bh_lock_sock(sk);

                if (sock_owned_by_user(sk)) {
                        if (sk_add_backlog(sk, skb, sk->sk_rcvbuf))
                                sctp_chunk_free(chunk);
                        else
                                backloged = 1;
                } else
                        sctp_inq_push(inqueue, chunk);

                bh_unlock_sock(sk);

while sctp_inq_push() was disabling/enabling BH, but enabling BH
triggers pending softirq, which then may try to re-lock the socket in
sctp_rcv().
