sctp: use new rhlist interface on sctp transport rhashtable
Now sctp transport rhashtable uses hash(lport, dport, daddr) as the key to hash a node to one chain. If in one host thousands of assocs connect to one server with the same lport and different laddrs (although it's not a normal case), all the transports would be hashed into the same chain. It may cause to keep returning -EBUSY when inserting a new node, as the chain is too long and sctp inserts a transport node in a loop, which could even lead to system hangs there. The new rhlist interface works for this case that there are many nodes with the same key in one chain. It puts them into a list then makes this list be as a node of the chain. This patch is to replace rhashtable_ interface with rhltable_ interface. Since a chain would not be too long and it would not return -EBUSY with this fix when inserting a node, the reinsert loop is also removed here.
