tcp: clean ext on tx recycle
Otherwise we will find stray/unexpected/old extensions value on next iteration. On tcp_write_xmit() we can end-up splitting an already queued skb in two parts, via tso_fragment(). The newly created skb can be allocated via the tx cache and an upper layer will not be aware of it, so that upper layer cannot set the ext properly. Resetting the ext on recycle ensures that stale data is not propagated in to packet headers or elsewhere. An alternative would be add an additional hook in tso_fragment() or in sk_stream_alloc_skb() to init the ext for upper layers that need it.
