sctp: Error in calculation of RTTvar
The calculation of RTTVAR involves the subtraction of two unsigned numbers which may causes rollover and results in very high values of RTTVAR when RTT > SRTT. With this patch it is possible to set RTOmin = 1 to get the minimum of RTO at 4 times the clock granularity. Change Notes: v2) *Replaced abs() by abs64() and long by __s64, changed patch description.
