Ok, this starts to get into controversial territory.
:-)

At the very least I think:

1) We should do this unconditionally, and even put
   a "unlikely" there in the test.

2) Actually, the whole operation belongs in a generic
   net/sock.h helper function, and this includes the
   leading if() test.

In the resubmitted patch you can include both UDP
and TCP and the change adding the generic helper all
at once.

Thanks.
