Now sctp holds read_lock when foreach sctp_ep_hashtable without disabling
BH. If CPU schedules to another thread A at this moment, the thread A may
be trying to hold the write_lock with disabling BH.
As BH is disabled and CPU cannot schedule back to the thread holding the
read_lock, while the thread A keeps waiting for the read_lock. A dead
lock would be triggered by this.
This patch is to fix this dead lock by calling read_lock_bh instead to
disable BH when holding the read_lock in sctp_for_each_endpoint.
Fixes: 626d16f50f ("sctp: export some apis or variables for sctp_diag and reuse some for proc")
