__sctp_lookup_association() is only invoked by sctp_v4_err() and
sctp_rcv(), both which run on the rx BH, and it has been protected
by rcu_read_lock [see ip_local_deliver_finish() / ipv6_rcv()].

So we can move it to sctp_lookup_association, only let
sctp_lookup_association use rcu_read_lock.

Not that it was right before if this is true, but if we're using rcu in a bottom
half path, shouldn't rcu_read_lock_bh be used instead here?

the resource is also accessed in threads, not only in BH, so we cannot
use rcu_read_lock_bh here.
