    sctp: fully initialize sctp_outq in sctp_outq_init · c5c7774d

    (refactor sctp_outq_teardown to insure proper re-initalization)
    we modified sctp_outq_teardown to use sctp_outq_init to fully re-initalize the
    outq structure.  Steve West recently asked me why I removed the q->error = 0
    initalization from sctp_outq_teardown.  I did so because I was operating under
    the impression that sctp_outq_init would properly initalize that value for us,
    but it doesn't.  sctp_outq_init operates under the assumption that the outq
    struct is all 0's (as it is when called from sctp_association_init), but using
    it in __sctp_outq_teardown violates that assumption. We should do a memset in
    sctp_outq_init to ensure that the entire structure is in a known state there
    instead.
