This revert commit efb842c45("sctp: optimize the sctp_sysctl_net_register"),
Since it doesn't kmemdup a sysctl_table for init_net, so the
init_net->sctp.sysctl_header->ctl_table_arg points to sctp_net_table
which is a static array pointer. So when doing sctp_sysctl_net_unregister,
it will free sctp_net_table, then we will get a NULL pointer dereference
like that:
