sctp_input.c:3928:1: pasting "sctps_ch_rcvd" and "[" does not give a valid
preprocessing token

#define SCTP_CHUNK_STAT_INCR(chk_id, name)	\
	atomic_add_int(&sctpstat.sctps_ch_##name##[chk_id], 1);

The result of the ## operator is required by the C standard to
be a valid preprocessing token. In the case above, the result
of ...rcvd ## [ is not a valid token (it would be two), and
hence the diagnostic. The second ## operator serves no useful
purpose and should be removed.
