[PATCH - SCTP] Fix multihomed connection failures on 64-bit systems.

Dave,

The following patch from Vladislav Yasevich fixes an SCTP issue with 64-bit
systems.
This applies to 2.4 tree also with a small offset.

[SCTP] Fix multihomed connection failures on 64-bit systems.

Avoid the use of sizeof() and pointer arithmetic to get to the end
of sctp_cookie structure. Instead use the last element peer_init which
is a zero-sized array as the offset.

Please use attachments if your mailer is going to turn tabs
into spaces as this makes the patch not apply cleanly.

I fixed it up by hand this time.

Thanks.
