Subject: [PATCH 1/3] tcp: Remove check in __tcp_push_pending_frames
Date: Wed, 09 Dec 2009 13:56:13 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20091209082613.19055.58864.sendpatchset@localhost.localdomain> (raw)

From: Krishna Kumar <krkumar2@in•ibm.com>

tcp_push checks tcp_send_head and calls __tcp_push_pending_frames,
which again checks tcp_send_head, and this unnecessary check is
done for every other caller of __tcp_push_pending_frames.

Remove tcp_send_head check in __tcp_push_pending_frames and add
the check to tcp_push_pending_frames. Other functions call
__tcp_push_pending_frames only when tcp_send_head would evaluate
to true.
