Thanks for the patch, Jeremy! Given we also have test_offload.py in BPF
kselftests and it is written for python 3 only, it would probably make
sense to adapt the tcp_{client,server}.py towards python 3 as well, so
we wouldn't need to keep extra compat for 2 and have a consistent version
dependency. Lawrence / Jeremy, any objections?
