sctp: Fix regression introduced by new sctp_connectx api
A new (unrealeased to the user) sctp_connectx api c6ba68a26645dbc5029a9faa5687ebe6fcfc53e4 sctp: support non-blocking version of the new sctp_connectx() API introduced a regression cought by the user regression test suite. In particular, the API requires the user library to re-allocate the buffer and could potentially trigger a SIGFAULT. This change corrects that regression by passing the original address buffer to the kernel unmodified, but still allows for a returned association id.
