[SCTP]: Handle address add/delete events in a more efficient way.

Currently in SCTP, we maintain a local address list by rebuilding the whole
list from the device list whenever we get a address add/delete event.

This patch fixes it by only adding/deleting the address for which we
receive the event.

Also removed the sctp_local_addr_lock() which is no longer needed as we
now use list_for_each_safe() to traverse this list. This fixes the bugs
in sctp_copy_laddrs_xxx() routines where we do copy_to_user() while
holding this lock.
