It looks like there is some bug in the crc32c calculation at sctp_crc32.c.
The update_crc32() does the following:

    ...
    offset = ((uintptr_t) buffer) & 0x3;
    return (sctp_crc32c_sb8_64_bit(crc32c, buffer, length, offset));

Now, note that it passes the 'offset' parameter. However, the
sctp_crc32c_sb8_64_bit() treats the 4th parameter as init_bytes. This is
wrong. Also it does the following:

   running_length = ((length - init_bytes) / 8) * 8;

Now, if init_bytes is 3 and length is 1, running_length will overlap.

The following patch seems to fix it.
