[PATCH/RFC 03/10] Don't do the TCP socket lookup if we already have one attached

[KOVACS Krisztian <hidden@balabit.hu>]

TCP input code path looks up the TCP socket hash tables to find a
socket matching the incoming packet. However, as iptable_tproxy does
socket lookups early the skb may already have the appropriate
reference attached, in that case we steal that reference instead of
doing the lookup.
