tcp: remove redundant checks

Browse source

tcp_v4_rcv() checks the following before calling tcp_v4_do_rcv():

if (th->doff < sizeof(struct tcphdr) / 4)
    goto bad_packet;
if (!pskb_may_pull(skb, th->doff * 4))
    goto discard_it;

So following check in tcp_v4_do_rcv() is redundant
and "goto csum_err;" is wrong anyway.

if (skb->len < tcp_hdrlen(skb) || ...)
	goto csum_err;

A second check can be removed after no_tcp_socket label for same reason.

Same tests can be removed in tcp_v6_do_rcv()

Note : short tcp frames are not properly accounted in tcpInErrs MIB,
because pskb_may_pull() failure simply drops incoming skb, we might
fix this in a separate patch.
