Theoretically, this WARN() shouldn't be triggered in any branches. Somehow, it just happened in kernel v3.10. This really confused me. I wasn't able to keep tracing it, as it is a product environment. I notice that the codes for tcp skb receiving didn't change much between v3.10 and the latest upstream version, and guess the latest version can be triggered too. If something is fixed and this WARN() won't be triggered, just ignore me. Cheers, Menglong Dong
