Since commit 1033990ac5b2 ("sctp: implement memory accounting on tx path"),
SCTP has supported memory accounting on tx path where 'sctp_wmem' is used
by sk_wmem_schedule(). So we should fix the description for this option in
ip-sysctl.rst accordingly.

I'm not a native English speaker, but this seems better:
"Minimum size of send buffer that can be used by an SCTP socket."
This is from "sctp_rmem" part:

"min: Minimal size of receive buffer used by SCTP socket."

I think it was copied from "tcp_rmem", and yes it should be "SCTP sockets"
or "an SCTP socket.", and "Minimum size" seems more common.

will post v2. Thanks.
