syzbot noticed a NULL pointer dereference panic in sctp_stream_free()
which was caused by an incomplete error handling in sctp_stream_init().
By not clearing stream->outcnt, it made a for() in sctp_stream_free()
think that it had elements to free, but not, leading to the panic.
As suggested by Xin Long, this patch also simplifies the error path by
moving it to the only if() that uses it.

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
