While by default max_autoclose equals to INT_MAX / HZ, one may set
net.sctp.max_autoclose to UINT_MAX. There is code in
sctp_association_init() that can consequently trigger overflow.

That doesn't fix 32bit systems.
Looking through sctp/structs.h there are a lot of 'long' used for
timeouts.
it can't be right that any of these change size between 32bit and 64bit.
So they should either be __u32 or __u64 (or similar).

I guess all the 'long' timeout values - not only in sctp, this concerns other modules in general - follow the jiffies thing itself which is declared as 'unsigned long'.
