sctp: count sk_wmem_alloc by skb truesize in sctp_packet_transmit



Now sctp increases sk_wmem_alloc by 1 when doing set_owner_w for the
skb allocked in sctp_packet_transmit and decreases by 1 when freeing
this skb.

But when this skb goes through networking stack, some subcomponents
might change skb->truesize and add the same amount on sk_wmem_alloc.
However sctp doesn't know the amount to decrease by, it would cause
a leak on sk->sk_wmem_alloc and the sock can never be freed.

Xiumei found this issue when it hit esp_output_head() by using sctp
over ipsec, where skb->truesize is added and so is sk->sk_wmem_alloc.

Since sctp has used sk_wmem_queued to count for writable space since
Commit cd305c74 ("sctp: use sk_wmem_queued to check for writable
space"), it's ok to fix it by counting sk_wmem_alloc by skb truesize
in sctp_packet_transmit.

Fixes: cac2661c ("esp4: Avoid skb_cow_data whenever possible")
