H A Dchunk.cdiff afd0a8006e98b1890908f81746c94ca5dae29d7c Tue Dec 04 13:27:41 CST 2018 Jakub Audykowicz <jakub.audykowicz@gmail.com> sctp: frag_point sanity check

If for some reason an association's fragmentation point is zero,
sctp_datamsg_from_user will try to endlessly try to divide a message
into zero-sized chunks. This eventually causes kernel panic due to
running out of memory.

Although this situation is quite unlikely, it has occurred before as
reported. I propose to add this simple last-ditch sanity check due to
the severity of the potential consequences.
