Ok. First, this is a different bug, so I would prefer a separate patch.
Also, I see the problem and it's ugly, but this solution is not really correct,
both conceptually and code wise.

Conceptually, the v4 code should never worry about V4-mapped addresses and shouldn't
muck with them. They are IPv6 addresses and there should be a clean separation.

Code wise, the code in the __sctp_connect() is terrible.

Does the attached patch work for you in this case.

Thanks
