Subject: [PATCH/RFC 03/13] Don't do the TCP socket lookup if we already have
	one attached

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.
