I gues you're not a real kernel programmer unless you've made this
mistake at least once :-)  It kind of prove this is a bad interface,
since it's so easy to use incorrectly.

This was already caught in a tcp_probe fix I applied earlier today,
so I removed that part.

The rest is applied and I'll queue for -stable, thanks Pavel.
