sctp: use memdup_user instead of vmemdup_user
[ Upstream commit ef82bcfa671b9a635bab5fa669005663d8b177c5 ] In sctp_setsockopt_bindx()/__sctp_setsockopt_connectx(), it allocates memory with addrs_size which is passed from userspace. We used flag GFP_USER to put some more restrictions on it in Commit cacc06215271 ("sctp: use GFP_USER for user-controlled kmalloc"). However, since Commit c981f254cc82 ("sctp: use vmemdup_user() rather than badly open-coding memdup_user()"), vmemdup_user() has been used, which doesn't check GFP_USER flag when goes to vmalloc_*(). So when addrs_size is a huge value, it could exhaust memory and even trigger oom killer. This patch is to use memdup_user() instead, in which GFP_USER would work to limit the memory allocation with a huge addrs_size. Note we can't fix it by limiting 'addrs_size', as there's no demand for it from RFC.
