[PATCH net-next] tcp: minor optimization for calculating packets_out in tcp connect
From: Yafang Shao
Date: Sat Dec 15 2018 - 04:33:42 EST
When we building a syn packet, the tcp_skb_pcount(skb) is always 1,
which is set in tcp_init_nondata_skb().
Regarding the syn_data, it is set through
memcpy(syn_data->cb, syn->cb, sizeof(syn->cb)),
which is always 1 as well.
So we don't need to use tcp_skb_pcount(skb), that could give us a
little improvement.
