When a transport recovers due to the new coming sack, SCTP should
iterate all of its transport_list to locate the __two__ most recently used
transport and set to active_path and retran_path respectively. The exising
code does not find the two properly - In case of the following list:

[most-recent] -> [2nd-most-recent] -> ...

Both active_path and retran_path would be set to the 1st element.

The bug happens when:
1) multi-homing
2) failure/partial_failure transport recovers
Both active_path and retran_path would be set to the same most-recent one, in
other words, retran_path would not take its role - an end user might not even
notice this issue.

May I ask what shall I do next? Shall I send it to someone else to have 
him/her merge it to the Linux source tree?
