mainlining shenanigans

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.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
