From: Jun Yang <junvyyang@tencent.com>

sctp_control_set_owner_w() records the owning socket in a control chunk's
skb->sk as a bare pointer.  sctp_sock_migrate() re-owns the association's
DATA chunks via sctp_for_each_tx_datachunk(), but that walk keys off
chunk->msg and so skips control chunks: any control chunk the association
still holds (for example the saved stream-reset request
asoc->strreset_chunk, the ASCONF request/ack lists, or
asoc->addip_last_asconf) keeps pointing at the old socket after the
association is moved to the new one.

Once the old socket is freed, a later retransmit reaches
sctp_packet_transmit() -> skb_set_owner_w(head, chunk->skb->sk) and
operates on the freed socket -- refcount_add() on its sk_wmem_alloc,
then sk->sk_write_space() from sock_wfree() -- a use-after-free of
struct sock.

Re-point every control chunk the association still holds at the new
socket right after sctp_assoc_migrate(), as is already done for DATA
chunks.  Control chunks carry no socket wmem charge and their skb
destructor does not use skb->sk, so a bare owner update is sufficient.
