AI-generated root cause summary:
When receiving an SCTP packet that is nonlinear (such as an SCTP GSO packet
constructed with fragments in frag_list), sctp_rcv attempts to linearize the
packet using skb_linearize() if the sk_buff is cloned (e.g., tapped by a packet
socket or shared) or not recognized as GSO. During linearization via
__skb_linearize() and __pskb_pull_tail(), skb_copy_bits() fails with -EFAULT due
to a discrepancy in frag_list fragment lengths or readable offsets, triggering a
BUG_ON assertion failure. In production builds, this BUG() results in an invalid
opcode oops and kernel panic, causing an immediate denial of service.
