[PATCH] SNMPv2 tcpOutSegs counter error

[Wei Yongjun <yjwei@nanjing-fnst.com>]

RFC2012 saied that tcpOutSegs should excluding those containing only
retransmitted octets. But in my test, linux kernel increased the
tcpOutSegs even if only retransmitted octets is send out.
So I think this is a bug of kernel.

Refer to RFC2012, tcpOutSegs is defined as following:

   tcpOutSegs OBJECT-TYPE
       SYNTAX      Counter32
       MAX-ACCESS  read-only
       STATUS      current
       DESCRIPTION
               "The total number of segments sent, including those on
               current connections but excluding those containing only
               retransmitted octets."
       ::= { tcp 11 }

Following is my patch:
