[TCP]: Don't set SKB owner in tcp_transmit_skb().

The data itself is already charged to the SKB, doing
the skb_set_owner_w() just generates a lot of noise and
extra atomics we don't really need.

Lmbench improvements on lat_tcp are minimal:

before:
TCP latency using localhost: 23.2701 microseconds
TCP latency using localhost: 23.1994 microseconds
TCP latency using localhost: 23.2257 microseconds

after:
TCP latency using localhost: 22.8380 microseconds
TCP latency using localhost: 22.9465 microseconds
TCP latency using localhost: 22.8462 microseconds
