Subject: [PATCH net-next-2.6] tcp: Remove redundant copy of MD5 authentication key
Date: Wed, 19 Aug 2009 19:47:41 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1250711261.7166.8.camel@Maple> (raw)

Stephen, you might want to review this, since you use MD5
authentication. 

---
Remove the copy of the MD5 authentication key from tcp_check_req().
This key has already been copied by tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock() or
tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock().
