This patchset is to improve some codes about prsctp polices, and also
to fix some issues.

v1->v2:
  - wrap the check of chunk->sent_count in a macro:
    sctp_chunk_retransmitted in patch 2/5.

This series is a mix of bug fixes (patch #1) which should be targetting
'net' and simplifications/cleanups (patch #2-5) which should be targetting
'net-next'.

Please do not mix things up like this, and submit patches targetting
the appropriate tree.

understand, I wanted to divide them.
but this patchset is special, the following patches
depend on patch 1/5.

That doesn't matter.  This happens all the time.

The way you handle this is you submit patch #1 targetting 'net' and
wait for it to get into 'net' and propagate into 'net-next'.  When
that happens you can submit patches #2-5 as a second patch series
targetting 'net-next'.
