tcp: don't backtrack to sacked skbs

Backtracking to sacked skbs is a horrible performance killer
since the hint cannot be advanced successfully past them...
...And it's totally unnecessary too.

In theory this is 2.6.27..28 regression but I doubt anybody
can make .28 to have worse performance because of other TCP
improvements.
