Subject: tcp: remove retransmit_skb_hint clearing from failure
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

This doesn't much sense here afaict, probably never has. Since
fragmenting and collapsing deal the hints by themselves, there
should be very little reason for the rexmit loop to do that.
