No, I don't think thats right.

This appears to have been sent on September 7th.  Commit
0d493b4d0be352b5e361e4fa0bc3efe952d8b10e, which added the use of flex_arrays to
sctp, seems to have been merged on August 10th, a month prior.

regardless, however, sctp has a current in-tree use of flex_arrays, and merging
this patch will break the build without a respin.
