Please do not define a sock generic function in the TCP protocol code.

If it belongs in TCP and is only used by TCP, give is a tcp specific
name prefix rather than a generic sk_ one.

This is even more ugly because I see that inet_connection_sock.c and
inet_hashtables.c uses this thing too.  Which means that DCCP sockets
will trigger this tracepoint.

inet_connection_sock.c and inet_hashtables.c are not guaranteed to
operate on only TCP sockets, and you must make amends to handle that
properly.

Thanks.
