[TCP]: Don't set SKB owner in tcp_transmit_skb().
The data itself is already charged to the SKB, doing the skb_set_owner_w() just generates a lot of noise and extra atomics we don't really need. Lmbench improvements on lat_tcp are minimal: before: TCP latency using localhost: 23.2701 microseconds TCP latency using localhost: 23.1994 microseconds TCP latency using localhost: 23.2257 microseconds after: TCP latency using localhost: 22.8380 microseconds TCP latency using localhost: 22.9465 microseconds TCP latency using localhost: 22.8462 microseconds Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
