Date: Wed Mar 09 2016 - 18:27:33 EST
3.13.11-ckt36 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Marcelo Ricardo Leitner <marcelo.leitner@xxxxxxxxx>
commit 27f7ed2b11d42ab6d796e96533c2076ec220affc upstream.
This patch extends commit b93d6471748d ("sctp: implement the sender side
for SACK-IMMEDIATELY extension") as it didn't white list
SCTP_SACK_IMMEDIATELY on sctp_msghdr_parse(), causing it to be
understood as an invalid flag and returning -EINVAL to the application.
Note that the actual handling of the flag is already there in
sctp_datamsg_from_user().
