Vegard Nossum 54236ab09e net/sctp: always initialise sctp_ht_iter::start_fail
sctp_transport_seq_start() does not currently clear iter->start_fail on
success, but relies on it being zero when it is allocated (by
seq_open_net()).

This can be a problem in the following sequence:

    open() // allocates iter (and implicitly sets iter->start_fail = 0)
    read()
     - iter->start() // fails and sets iter->start_fail = 1
     - iter->stop() // doesn't call sctp_transport_walk_stop() (correct)
    read() again
     - iter->start() // succeeds, but doesn't change iter->start_fail
     - iter->stop() // doesn't call sctp_transport_walk_stop() (wrong)

We should initialize sctp_ht_iter::start_fail to zero if ->start()
succeeds, otherwise it's possible that we leave an old value of 1 there,
which will cause ->stop() to not call sctp_transport_walk_stop(), which
causes all sorts of problems like not calling rcu_read_unlock() (and
preempt_enable()), eventually leading to more warnings like this:

    BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at mm/slab.h:388

Notice that this is a subtly different stacktrace from the one in commit
5fc382d875 ("net/sctp: terminate rhashtable walk correctly").
