net: sctp: find the correct highest_new_tsn in sack

Function sctp_check_transmitted(transport t, ...) would iterate all of transport->transmitted queue and looking for the highest __newly__ acked tsn. The original algorithm would depend on the order of the assoc->transport_list (in function sctp_outq_sack line 1215 - 1226). The result might not be the expected due to the order of the tranport_list. Solution: checking if the exising is smaller than the new one before assigning Signed-off-by: Chang Xiangzhong <[email protected]> Acked-by: Vlad Yasevich <[email protected]> Acked-by: Neil Horman <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: David S.
