sctp_wait_for_connect() currently already holds the asoc to keep it
alive during the sleep, in case another thread release it. But Andrey
Konovalov and Dmitry Vyukov reported an use-after-free in such
situation.

Problem is that __sctp_connect() doesn't get a ref on the asoc and will
do a read on the asoc after calling sctp_wait_for_connect(), but by then
another thread may have closed it and the _put on sctp_wait_for_connect
will actually release it, causing the use-after-free.

Fix is, instead of doing the read after waiting for the connect, do it
before so, and avoid this issue as the socket is still locked by then.
There should be no issue on returning the asoc id in case of failure as
the application shouldn't trust on that number in such situations
anyway.

This issue doesn't exist in sctp_sendmsg() path.

Is it worth ensuring that *assoc_id is NULL on error?
Maybe change the code to:
	assoc_id_val = asoc->assoc_id;
	rval = sctp_wait_for_connect(asoc, &timeo);
	if (err != 0 && err != -EINPROGRESS)
		assoc_id_val = 0;
	if (assoc_id)
		*assoc_id = assoc_id_val;

I don't think so. An error was returned, the value shouldn't be trusted 
anyway and it's not leaking any sort of critical data.

Note that original code doesn't touch assoc_id in case of error. It's 
different than zeroing it out.

Or just clear it in case of error..
  	if (assoc_id && (err != 0 && err != -EINPROGRESS))
  		*assoc_id = 0;
Amount of code is probably the same but avoids a temporary var.
