there is rare possibility that conn->tx_pushing is not 1, since
tx_pushing is just checked with 1, so move the setting tx_pushing
to 1 after atomic_dec_and_test() return false, to avoid atomic_set
and smp_wmb in tx path

nit: it would be better if we change the comments to "send again".

Thanks

Some nits:

1. It is normally using [PATCH net-next] rather than [PATCH][net-next]
    in subject. And new version should better be marked. such as:

    # git format-patch --subject-prefix="PATCH net-next" -v 3

    And CC all relevant people listed by:

    # ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl <your patch>

2. Few improvements in the commit body.


Thanks,
Wen Gu
