cb->args[4] is currently used as a temporary counter to track the assoc
index while traversing ep->asocs in sctp_sock_dump(). However, this
state is only needed locally within a single dump iteration and does not
need to be preserved across callbacks.

Replace cb->args[4] with a local idx variable in sctp_sock_dump(), and
update cb->args[1] directly when the dump is interrupted due to skb
space exhaustion.

This simplifies the dump state handling and removes the dependency on an
extra cb->args[] slot, making the traversal logic easier to follow.
