This simple patch copies the current approach for SIOCINQ ioctl() from DCCP
into SCTP so that the userland code working with SCTP can use a similar
interface across different protocols to know how much space to allocate for
a buffer.

I'm pretty sure it's in the net-next-2.6, is it not?

Ah yes it is, sorry, I was mislead by the presence in -rc8 of the other
SCTP patches that came afterwards (and because it has been since August
I'm dragging this patch around).

Thank you very much!
