> This patch fixes an issue with TIPC's message retransmission logic
> that prevented retransmission of clone sk_buffs.  Originally intended
> as a means of avoiding wasted work in retransmitting messages that
> were still on the driver's outbound queue, it also prevented TIPC
> from retransmitting messages through other means -- such as the
> secondary bearer of the broadcast link, or another interface in a
> set of bonded interfaces.  This fix removes existing checks for
> cloned sk_buffs that prevented such retransmission.
