For some reason, I forgot to change __tcp_v6_send_check() at
the same time I removed (ip_summed == CHECKSUM_PARTIAL) check
in __tcp_v4_send_check()

Fixes: 98be9b12096f ("tcp: remove dead code after CHECKSUM_PARTIAL adoption")

Given the Fixes, should this go one through -net?

It is only removing dead code, and going through net-next is not a big deal.

No real 'bug', just a way for me to point out that we had a similar
change in IPv4 for years and nothing bad happened.
