Subject: [PATCH net-2.6.24 0/9]: TCP improvements & cleanups

Hi Dave,

Just in case you're short on what to do ;-) here are some TCP
related cleanups & improvements to net-2.6.24. Including FRTO
undo fix which finally should allow FRTO to be turned on, and
some simple fastpath tweaks simple enough to the 2.6.24
schedule. ...I've a larger fastpath_hint removal patch coming
up later too but it's really a monster which needs more time
though I guess it could really cut down the SACK processing
latencies people are experience with high-speed flows (I'll
probably post it with RFC once you've picked these up).

These were boot (& couple of hours) tested on the top of
net-2.6.24 (something after the first "large" rebase you did,
so you could count that as success report of it too :-)).
Not sure if all those fragment/collapse paths I modified got
executed though.
