Subject: [PATCH] net: sctp: Don't transition to PF state when transport has
 exhausted 'Path.Max.Retrans'.

Don't transition to the PF state on every strike after 'Path.Max.Retrans'.
Per draft-ietf-tsvwg-sctp-failover-03 Section 5.1.6:

   Additional (PMR - PFMR) consecutive timeouts on a PF destination
   confirm the path failure, upon which the destination transitions to the
   Inactive state.  As described in [RFC4960], the sender (i) SHOULD notify
   ULP about this state transition, and (ii) transmit heartbeats to the
   Inactive destination at a lower frequency as described in Section 8.3 of
   [RFC4960].

This also prevents sending SCTP_ADDR_UNREACHABLE to the user as the state
bounces between SCTP_INACTIVE and SCTP_PF for each subsequent strike.
