    sctp: fix the panic caused by route update · ecc515d7

    Commit 7303a147 ("sctp: identify chunks that need to be fragmented
    at IP level") made the chunk be fragmented at IP level in the next round
    if it's size exceed PMTU.
    
    But there still is another case, PMTU can be updated if transport's dst
    expires and transport's pmtu_pending is set in sctp_packet_transmit. If
    the new PMTU is less than the chunk, the same issue with that commit can
    be triggered.
    
    So we should drop this packet and let it retransmit in another round
    where it would be fragmented at IP level.
    
    This patch is to fix it by checking the chunk size after PMTU may be
    updated and dropping this packet if it's size exceed PMTU.
