In short, sctp is likely to incorrectly choose src address if socket is
bound to secondary addresses. This patch fixes it by adding a new check
that checks if such src address belongs to the interface that routing
identified as output.
This is enough to avoid rp_filter drops on remote peer.
Details:
Currently, sctp will do a routing attempt without specifying the src
address and compare the returned value (preferred source) with the
addresses that the socket is bound to. When using secondary addresses,
this will not match.
Then it will try specifying each of the addresses that the socket is
bound to and re-routing, checking if that address is valid as src for
that dst. Thing is, this check alone is weak:

192.168.100.193 from 192.168.122.148 dev eth1
cache
Even if you specify an interface:
# ip r g 192.168.100.193 from 192.168.122.148 oif eth1
192.168.100.193 from 192.168.122.148 dev eth1
cache
Although this would be valid, peers using rp_filter will drop such
packets as their src doesn't match the routes for that interface.
