[PATCH v2] tcp: fix regression in urgent data handling

From: Eric Dumazet <hidden>

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>

Stephan Springl found that commit 1402d366019fed "tcp: introduce
tcp_try_coalesce" introduced a regression for rlogin

It turns out problem comes from TCP urgent data handling and
a change in behavior in input path.

rlogin sends two one-byte packets with URG ptr set, and when next data
frame is coalesced, we lack sk_data_ready() calls to wakeup consumer.
