sctp: allow setting SCTP_SACK_IMMEDIATELY by the application

Browse source

[ Upstream commit 27f7ed2b11 ]

This patch extends commit b93d647174 ("sctp: implement the sender side
for SACK-IMMEDIATELY extension") as it didn't white list
SCTP_SACK_IMMEDIATELY on sctp_msghdr_parse(), causing it to be
understood as an invalid flag and returning -EINVAL to the application.

Note that the actual handling of the flag is already there in
sctp_datamsg_from_user().
