Smatch reported a possible off-by-one in tcp_validate_cookie(). However, it's false positive because the possible range of mssind is limited from 0 to 3 by the preceding calculation. mssind = (cookie & (3 << 6)) >> 6; Now, the verifier does not complain without the boundary check. Let's remove the checks.
