The SCTP protocol has several deprecation warnings in its setsockopt path that

common pr_warn_deprecated macro to produce somewhat generalized ratelimited
deprecation warnings easily

No objection to these changes, but I think deprecation warnings should
log at least the command name and maybe also the pid of the caller.
