[PATCH v2 net-next 1/3] tcp: inline __tcp_v4_send_check()

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>
Date: 2026-02-23 10:07:33
Subsystem: networking [general], networking [tcp], the rest · Maintainers: "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Neal Cardwell, Linus Torvalds

Inline __tcp_v4_send_check(), like __tcp_v6_send_check().

Move tcp_v4_send_check() to tcp_output.c close to
its fast path caller (__tcp_transmit_skb()).

Note __tcp_v4_send_check() is still out-of-line for tcp4_gso_segment()
because it is called in an unlikely() section.
