tcp: Stop non-TSO packets morphing into TSO

Browse source 
If a socket starts out on a non-TSO route, and then switches to
a TSO route, then the tail on the tx queue can morph into a TSO
packet, causing mischief because the rest of the stack does not
expect a partially linear TSO packet.

This patch fixes this by ensuring that skb->ip_summed is set to
CHECKSUM_PARTIAL before declaring a packet as TSO.
