tcp: remove the sk_can_gso() check from tcp_set_skb_tso_segs()

sk_can_gso() should only be used as a hint in tcp_sendmsg() to build GSO
packets in the first place. (As a performance hint)

Once we have GSO packets in write queue, we can not decide they are no
longer GSO only because flow now uses a route which doesn't handle
TSO/GSO.

Core networking stack handles the case very well for us, all we need
is keeping track of packet counts in MSS terms, regardless of
segmentation done later (in GSO or hardware)

Right now, if  tcp_fragment() splits a GSO packet in two parts,
@left and @right, and route changed through a non GSO device,
both @left and @right have pcount set to 1, which is wrong,
and leads to incorrect packet_count tracking.

This problem was added in commit d5ac99a648 ("[TCP]: skb pcount with MTU
discovery")
