What is this !tcp_skb_pcount(skb) for???? I think what we really want here 
is this:        || (skb == tcp_send_head(sk))

IMHO, a bit verbose comment. Besides, we already tell above that what SACK 
fastpath is all about...

Don't tell what's obvious from code as well.

...We never add statements on the same line after if statements (see 
Documentation/CodingStyle)
