[PATCH 4.16 26/55] sctp: remove sctp_chunk_put from fail_mark err path in sctp_ulpevent_make_rcvmsg

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman

4.16-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

[ Upstream commit 6910e25de2257e2c82c7a2d126e3463cd8e50810 ]

In Commit 1f45f78f8e51 ("sctp: allow GSO frags to access the chunk too"),
it held the chunk in sctp_ulpevent_make_rcvmsg to access it safely later
in recvmsg. However, it also added sctp_chunk_put in fail_mark err path,
which is only triggered before holding the chunk.

syzbot reported a use-after-free crash happened on this err path, where
it shouldn't call sctp_chunk_put.

This patch simply removes this call.
