If sctp_association_free is called for general asoc, yes, I agree with you.
But it's actually only for NEW asoc, a special case, not worth a extra check.
'err != -ESRCH' is already kind of ugly there (I couldn't find a nicer way :D),
I don't hope there will be more like that.

And also, I think I moved sctp_primitive_ASSOCIATE before
sctp_wait_for_sndbuf by accident in that patch(Sorry), which may
already change some behavior. We have to move it back.
