The script is pretty hard to reproduce the issue in my env.
But there seems a case to cause a use-after-free when out of snd_buf.

the case is like:
-----------
one thread: another thread:
sctp_rcv hold asoc (hold transport)
enqueue the chunk to backlog queue
[refcnt=2]

sctp_close free assoc
[refcnt=1]

sctp_sendmsg find asoc
but not hold it

out of snd_buf
hold asoc, schedule out
[refcnt = 2]

process backlog and put asoc/transport
[refcnt=1]

schedule in, put asoc
[refcnt=0] <--- destroyed

sctp_sendmsg continue
using asoc, panic

--------------------

Maybe we should check if asoc is dead already when schedule back
into sctp_sendmsg because of out of snd_buf.
