As it says in rfc6458#section-9.2:

  The application uses the sctp_peeloff() call to branch off an
  association into a separate socket.  (Note that the semantics are
  somewhat changed from the traditional one-to-one style accept()
  call.)  Note also that the new socket is a one-to-one style socket.
  Thus, it will be confined to operations allowed for a one-to-one
  style socket.

Prior to this patch, sctp_peeloff() returned a one-to-many type socket,
on which some operations are not allowed, like shutdown, as Jere
reported.

This patch is to change it to return a one-to-one type socket instead.
Thanks for looking into this. I like the patch, and it fixes my simple
test case.

But with this patch, peeled-off sockets are created by copying from a
one-to-many socket to a one-to-one socket. Are you sure that that's
not going to cause any problems? Is it possible that there was a
reason why peeloff wasn't implemented this way in the first place?

With this patch there's no way to create UDP_HIGH_BANDWIDTH style
sockets anymore, so the remaining references should probably be
cleaned up:

./net/sctp/socket.c:1886:       if (!sctp_style(sk, UDP_HIGH_BANDWIDTH) && msg->msg_name) {
./net/sctp/socket.c:8522:       if (sctp_style(sk, UDP_HIGH_BANDWIDTH))
./include/net/sctp/structs.h:144:       SCTP_SOCKET_UDP_HIGH_BANDWIDTH,

This patch disables those checks. The first one ignores a destination
address given to sendmsg() with a peeled-off socket - I don't know
why. The second one prevents listen() on a peeled-off socket.
