Hum... retrans_out should sit close to packets_out (or lost_out/sacked_out 
???), please.

'struct tcp_sock' is very large on 64 bits, so I would prefer to make sure 
most paths dont need to touch all 24 cache lines (or 25 cache lines).
That is perfectly fine, I'll replace my patch with another, that states
this beyond doubt.
David, I just removed this patch from my net-2.6 tree, if you are ok
with the others, please pull.
