tcp: Slightly optimize tcp_sendmsg
Slightly optimize tcp_sendmsg since NETIF_F_SG is used many
times iteratively in the loop. The only other modification is
to change:
} else if (i == MAX_SKB_FRAGS ||
(!i &&
!(sk->sk_route_caps & NETIF_F_SG))) {
to:
} else if (i == MAX_SKB_FRAGS || !sg) {
The reason why this change is correct: this code (other than
the MAX_SKB_FRAGS case) executes only due to the else part
of: "if (skb_tailroom(skb) > 0) {" - i.e. there was no space
in the skb to put the data inline. Hence SG is false is a
sufficient condition, and there is no way a fragment can be
added to the skb.
Changelog:
- Added the above explanation for the change
