Subject: [RFC PATCH net-2.6.26 (Plan A)] [TCP]: Lower stack usage in
 tcp4_seq_show().

tcp4_seq_show() eats about 250 bytes.  By using buffer in seq_file
directly, it will be reduced under 100 bytes.

One drawback is slight change of the format - the format was fixed
size and now its size is variable.
However, size of the line was 128 bytes in 2.2, and 150 bytes in 2.6,
so the change may not matter, probably.
