[Impact]
The `member` argument passed to `container_of` has been swapped in both
proc_sctp_do_auth() and proc_sctp_do_hmac_alg(), which can lead to a kernel
oops or panic.

[Fix]
Match mainline commits ea62dd1383913b and 15649fd5415e by passing the right
arguments to `container_of` in proc_sctp_do_auth() and proc_sctp_do_hmac_alg().

[Test Case]
Run `modprobe sctp && cat /proc/sys/net/sctp/cookie_hmac_alg` and check that
no oops or panic have appeared in the kernel logs.

[Where problems could occur]
Limited to SCTP connections.
