tcp: introduce struct tcp_sacktag_state to reduce arg pressure
There are just too many args to some sacktag functions. This idea was first proposed by David S. Miller around a year ago, and the current situation is much worse that what it was back then. tcp_sacktag_one can be made a bit simpler by returning the new sacked (it can be achieved with a single variable though the previous code "caching" sacked into a local variable and therefore it is not exactly equal but the results will be the same). codiff on x86_64 tcp_sacktag_one | -15 tcp_shifted_skb | -50 tcp_match_skb_to_sack | -1 tcp_sacktag_walk | -64 tcp_sacktag_write_queue | -59 tcp_urg | +1 tcp_event_data_recv | -1 7 functions changed, 1 bytes added, 190 bytes removed, diff: -189 Signed-off-by: Ilpo Järvinen <ilpo.jarvinen@helsinki.fi> Signed-off-by: David S.
