> Commit f8d960524328 ("sctp: Enforce retransmission limit during shutdown")
> fixed a problem with excessive retransmissions in the SHUTDOWN_PENDING by not
> resetting the association overall_error_count.  This allowed the association
> to better enforce assoc.max_retrans limit.
> 
> However, the same issue still exists when the association is in 
> SHUTDOWN_RECEIVED
> state.  In this state, HB-ACKs will continue to reset the overall_error_count
> for the association would extend the lifetime of association unnecessarily.
> 
> This patch solves this by resetting the overall_error_count whenever the 
> current
> state is small then SCTP_STATE_SHUTDOWN_PENDING.  As a small side-effect, we
> end up also handling SCTP_STATE_SHUTDOWN_ACK_SENT and SCTP_STATE_SHUTDOWN_SENT
> states, but they are not really impacted because we disable Heartbeats in 
> those
