[PATCH net] sctp: use GFP_USER for user-controlled kmalloc

From: Marcelo Ricardo Leitner
Date: Wed Dec 23 2015 - 13:29:45 EST


Commit cacc06215271 ("sctp: use GFP_USER for user-controlled kmalloc")
missed two other spots.

For connectx, as it's more likely to be used by kernel users of the API,
it detects if GFP_USER should be used or not.

Fixes: cacc06215271 ("sctp: use GFP_USER for user-controlled kmalloc")
