sctp: disable BH before calling udp_tunnel_xmit_skb()

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

sctp: disable BH before calling udp_tunnel_xmit_skb()

udp_tunnel_xmit_skb() / udp_tunnel6_xmit_skb() are expected to run with
BH disabled.  After commit 6f1a9140ecda ("add xmit recursion limit to
tunnel xmit functions"), on the path:

  udp(6)_tunnel_xmit_skb() -> ip(6)tunnel_xmit()

dev_xmit_recursion_inc()/dec() must stay balanced on the same CPU.

Without local_bh_disable(), the context may move between CPUs, which can
break the inc/dec pairing. This may lead to incorrect recursion level
detection and cause packets to be dropped in ip(6)_tunnel_xmit() or
__dev_queue_xmit().

Fix it by disabling BH around both IPv4 and IPv6 SCTP UDP xmit paths.

In my testing, after enabling the SCTP over UDP:

  # ip net exec ha sysctl -w net.sctp.udp_port=9899
  # ip net exec ha sysctl -w net.sctp.encap_port=9899
  # ip net exec hb sysctl -w net.sctp.udp_port=9899
  # ip net exec hb sysctl -w net.sctp.encap_port=9899

  # ip net exec ha iperf3 -s

- without this patch:

  # ip net exec hb iperf3 -c 192.168.0.1 --sctp
  [  5]   0.00-10.00  sec  37.2 MBytes  31.2 Mbits/sec  sender
  [  5]   0.00-10.00  sec  37.1 MBytes  31.1 Mbits/sec  receiver

- with this patch:

  # ip net exec hb iperf3 -c 192.168.0.1 --sctp
  [  5]   0.00-10.00  sec  3.14 GBytes  2.69 Gbits/sec  sender
