It looks like this commit (or maybe the next one, 
c620788150d274c09a070ab486602c98407d73b0) causes a panic in the SCTP 
code during the `sys/netpfil/pf/sctp:basic_v4` test:

	panic: Counter goes negative
	cpuid = 7
	time = 1691145655

	KDB: enter: panic

That seems to be panicking during SCTP packet handling, so I do not 
believe this to be a pf bug.

Reverting both commits avoids the problem.

It’s also failing during the CI tests: 
https://ci.freebsd.org/view/Test/job/FreeBSD-main-amd64-test/23957/console

(To reproduce, kldload pf sctp ; cd /usr/tests/sys/netpfil/pf ; sudo 
kyua test sctp:basic_v4).

Best regards,
Kristof
