SCTP: Check to make sure file is valid before setting timeout
In-kernel sockets created with sock_create_kern don't usually have a file and file descriptor allocated to them. As a result, when SCTP tries to check the non-blocking flag, we Oops when dereferencing a NULL file pointer. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
