net: sctp: migrate most recently used transport to ktime
Be more precise in transport path selection and use ktime helpers instead of jiffies to compare and pick the better primary and secondary recently used transports. This also avoids any side-effects during a possible roll-over, and could lead to better path decision-making. Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <dborkman@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
