    sctp: add pf_expose per netns and sock and asoc · aef587be

    As said in rfc7829, section 3, point 12:
    
      The SCTP stack SHOULD expose the PF state of its destination
      addresses to the ULP as well as provide the means to notify the
      ULP of state transitions of its destination addresses from
      active to PF, and vice versa.  However, it is recommended that
      an SCTP stack implementing SCTP-PF also allows for the ULP to be
      kept ignorant of the PF state of its destinations and the
      associated state transitions, thus allowing for retention of the
      simpler state transition model of [RFC4960] in the ULP.
    
    Not only does it allow to expose the PF state to ULP, but also
    allow to ignore sctp-pf to ULP.
    
    So this patch is to add pf_expose per netns, sock and asoc. And in
    sctp_assoc_control_transport(), ulp_notify will be set to false if
    asoc->expose is not 'enabled' in next patch.
    
    It also allows a user to change pf_expose per netns by sysctl, and
    pf_expose per sock and asoc will be initialized with it.
    
    Note that pf_expose also works for SCTP_GET_PEER_ADDR_INFO sockopt,
    to not allow a user to query the state of a sctp-pf peer address
    when pf_expose is 'disabled', as said in section 7.3.
    
    v1->v2:
      - Fix a build warning noticed by Nathan Chancellor.
    v2->v3:
      - set pf_expose to UNUSED by default to keep compatible with old
        applications.
    v3->v4:
      - add a new entry for pf_expose on ip-sysctl.txt, as Marcelo suggested.
      - change this patch to 1/5, and move sctp_assoc_control_transport
        change into 2/5, as Marcelo suggested.
      - use SCTP_PF_EXPOSE_UNSET instead of SCTP_PF_EXPOSE_UNUSED, and
        set SCTP_PF_EXPOSE_UNSET to 0 in enum, as Marcelo suggested.
