I still don't follow.  If it doesn't impact SW, then what is it doing?
According to the comment, we're moving to SW tx, where sk_prot will be 
&tls_prot[TLS_SW_TX], and the unhash function you set here in TLS_BASE_TX won't 
be called.

some of the scenarios I originally thought:
- tls_init finds the Inline offload dev and sets the TLS_FULL_HW but setsockopt 
remains do_tls_setsockopt_tx, In the above path we continue in TLS_SW_TX mode 
with updated unhash. Since, sw_tx prot is borrowed from base_tx we modified the 
base_tx prot unhash for cleanup.
- tls_offload_dev_absent finds no device i.e rc=0. Continue in TLS_SW_TX mode. 
No change required.
- Inline tls device is added after tls_init is called, do_tls_setsockopt_tx 
will see tls_offload_dev_absent return EEXIST and will modify unhash but only 
if tx_conf = TLS_FULL_HW [missing now] and you rightly pointed that it ends up 
modifying base prot for all sk which is not we want. My worry was losing hw 
specific unhash.
I see calling tls_offload_dev_absent in do_tls_setsockopt_tx an overkill, the 
sk here perhaps require no update to continue in SW_TX, the HW unhash is still 
assigned to tls_init 'sk' for cleanup in the close path, better to remove 
tls_offload_dev_absent altogether and simplify.
