sctp: disable BH in sctp_for_each_endpoint [ Upstream commit 581409dacc9176b0de1f6c4ca8d66e13aa8e1b29 ] Now sctp holds read_lock when foreach sctp_ep_hashtable without disabling BH. If CPU schedules to another thread A at this moment, the thread A may be trying to hold the write_lock with disabling BH. As BH is disabled and CPU cannot schedule back to the thread holding the read_lock, while the thread A keeps waiting for the read_lock. A dead lock would be triggered by this. This patch is to fix this dead lock by calling read_lock_bh instead to disable BH when holding the read_lock in sctp_for_each_endpoint.
