[PATCH v2 net-next] tcp: Check daddr_cache before use in tracepoint

Running perf in one window to capture tcp_retransmit_skb tracepoint:
    $ perf record -e tcp:tcp_retransmit_skb -a

And causing a retransmission on an active TCP session (e.g., dropping
packets in the receiver, changing MTU on the interface to 500 and back
to 1500) triggers a panic:

Hi Dave: There was a v3 to this one. I'll send a diff patch.
