The cause of the resultant dump_stack() reported below is a dereference of a freed pointer to 'struct sctp_endpoint' in sctp_sock_dump().
This race condition occurs when a transport is cached into its associated hash table followed by an endpoint/sock migration to a new association in sctp_assoc_migrate() prior to their subsequent use in sctp_diag_dump() which uses sctp_for_each_transport() to walk the hash table calling into sctp_sock_dump() where the dereference occurs.

To prevent this from happening we need to take a references to the to-be-used/dereferenced 'struct sock' and 'struct sctp_endpoint's until such a time when we know it can be safely released.
When KASAN is not enabled, a similar, but slightly different NULL pointer derefernce crash occurs later along the thread of execution in inet_sctp_diag_fill() this time.
