tcp: remove header prediction

Browse source 
Like prequeue, I am not sure this is overly useful nowadays.

If we receive a train of packets, GRO will aggregate them if the
headers are the same (HP predates GRO by several years) so we don't
get a per-packet benefit, only a per-aggregated-packet one.
