[ Upstream commit b71d21c274eff20a9db8158882b545b141b73ab8 ]
Commit 9b9742022888 ("sctp: support ipv6 nonlocal bind") introduced support for the above options as v4 sctp did, so patched sctp_v6_available().
In the v4 implementation it's enough, because sctp_inet_bind_verify() just returns with sctp_v4_available(). However sctp_inet6_bind_verify() has an extra check before that for link-local scope_id, which won't respect the above options.
Added the checks before calling ipv6_chk_addr(), but not before the validation of scope_id.
before (w/ both options): ./v6test fe80::10 sctp bind failed, errno: 99 (Cannot assign requested address) ./v6test fe80::10 tcp bind success, errno: 0 (Success)
after (w/ both options): ./v6test fe80::10 sctp bind success, errno: 0 (Success)
