local_cork is used to decide if it should uncork asoc outq after processing some cmds, and it is set when replying or sending msgs. local_cork should always have the same value with current asoc q->cork in some way.
The thing is when changing to a new asoc by cmd SET_ASOC, local_cork may not be consistent with the current asoc any more. The cmd seqs can be: SCTP_CMD_UPDATE_ASSOC (asoc) SCTP_CMD_REPLY (asoc) SCTP_CMD_SET_ASOC (new_asoc) SCTP_CMD_DELETE_TCB (new_asoc) SCTP_CMD_SET_ASOC (asoc) SCTP_CMD_REPLY (asoc) The 1st REPLY makes OLD asoc q->cork and local_cork both are 1, and the cmd DELETE_TCB clears NEW asoc q->cork and local_cork. After asoc goes back to OLD asoc, q->cork is still 1 while local_cork is 0. The 2nd REPLY will not set local_cork because q->cork is already set and it can't be uncorked and sent out because of this. To keep local_cork consistent with the current asoc q->cork, this patch is to uncork the old asoc if local_cork is set before changing to the new one. Note that the above cmd seqs will be used in the next patch when updating asoc and handling errors in it.
