Subject: Re: [PATCH v2 RFC 2/5] TCPCT part 2b: remove old tcp_optlen function

In the only two existing files using the old tcp_optlen() function,
clean up confusing and inconsistent mixing of both byte and word
offsets.  Document assumptions.

No semantic changes.  The drivers should function exactly as existing.
Untested.  No response from testers in 9+ weeks.

Requires:
   TCPCT part 2a: TCP header pointer functions
