sctp: fix use-after-free of cached ASCONF chunk
addip_last_asconf caches the outstanding outbound ASCONF chunk. The normal
ASCONF-ACK completion path releases the chunk and clears the pointer.
However, sctp_asconf_queue_teardown() releases the cached chunk without
clearing addip_last_asconf. During peer restart handling,
sctp_sf_do_dupcook_a() queues SCTP_CMD_PURGE_ASCONF_QUEUE, which invokes
sctp_asconf_queue_teardown() while the association remains alive and leaves
the pointer dangling.
A delayed authenticated ASCONF-ACK can then reach sctp_sf_do_asconf_ack(),
which accesses the stale chunk and passes it to sctp_process_asconf_ack(),
causing a use-after-free and a second release.
Clearing the pointer exposes a race with T4 expiry. Peer restart handling
queues the timer stop before the purge, but SCTP_CMD_TIMER_STOP uses
timer_delete(), which does not wait for a callback already running on
another CPU. Such a callback can reach sctp_sf_t4_timer_expire() after
the purge and dereference NULL.
Clear addip_last_asconf after releasing the cached chunk, and make
sctp_sf_t4_timer_expire() consume a stale T4 expiry if no outstanding
ASCONF remains.
