[PATCH -next] sctp: fix error return code in __sctp_connect()

[Wei Yongjun]

From: Wei Yongjun <yongjun_wei@trendmicro.com.cn>

Fix to return a negative error code from the error handling
case instead of 0, as returned elsewhere in this function.

Actually, I think you can remove that entire if statement (as well as some
checks further down).  Looking at the net-next trees __sctp_connect, it appears
that asoc is set to NULL at the top of the function, and not assigned to
anything else until the call to sctp_association_new much farther down (line
1201).  That means the above if statement, as well as this:
 if (asoc2 && asoc2 != asoc) {
and this:
if (!asoc) {
will always be false, false, and true, respectively.

Neil

No, I don't think you can.  Consider a case of sctp_connectx() where 
each address specified in connectx has a different destination port.

First time through the loop, we'll create the association and set the 
peer.port.  The second time through the loop, we'll compare the that 
port to the port specified in the second address.  If the ports do not 
match, we need to stop.

Ah, you're right, I missed the while loop, apologies

Applied.
