Commit978aa04741("sctp: fix some type cast warnings introduced since very beginning")' broke err reading from sctp_arg, because it reads the value as 32-bit integer, although the value is stored as 16-bit integer. Later this value is passed to the userspace in 16-bit variable, thus the user always gets 0 on big-endian platforms. Fix it by reading the __u16 field of sctp_arg union, as reading err field would produce a sparse warning.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
