sctp: Fix regression introduced by new sctp_connectx api
A new (unrealeased to the user) sctp_connectx api

c6ba68a26645dbc5029a9faa5687ebe6fcfc53e4
    sctp: support non-blocking version of the new sctp_connectx() API

introduced a regression cought by the user regression test
suite.  In particular, the API requires the user library to
re-allocate the buffer and could potentially trigger a SIGFAULT.

This change corrects that regression by passing the original
address buffer to the kernel unmodified, but still allows for
a returned association id.
