Is there any reason why we shouldn't do the same thing on the write

[PATCH net-next-2.6] tcp: Don't wake up reading threads on write space 

When TCP frees up write buffer space, avoid waking up tasks that have
done a poll() or select() on the same socket specifying read-side
events.

This is an extension of a read-side patch by Eric Dumazet.
