Section 8.4:

   An SCTP packet is called an "out of the blue" (OOTB) packet if it is
   correctly formed (i.e., passed the receiver's CRC32c check; see
   Section 6.8), but the receiver is not able to identify the
   association to which this packet belongs.


I would argue that the packet is not correctly formed in this case
and deserves a protocol violation ABORT in return.

As your comment, patch has been changed.
Patch has been split to two, one is resolve this dead loop problem in
this mail.
And the other is come in another mail to discard partial chunk which
chunk length is set to zero.

I am starting to question the entire OOTB packet handling.  There are way
too many function that do almost the same thing and all handle OOTB a little
different.

sctp_sf_do_9_2_reshutack() is also called during sctp_sf_do_dupcook_a()
processing, so checking for INIT chunk is wrong.  Checking for just the
chunkhdr_t should be enough.
