Neal Cardwell ba4618885b tcp: remove RFC3517/RFC6675 hint state: lost_skb_hint, lost_cnt_hint
Now that obsolete RFC3517/RFC6675 TCP loss detection has been removed,
we can remove the somewhat complex and intrusive code to maintain its
hint state: lost_skb_hint and lost_cnt_hint.

This commit makes tcp_clear_retrans_hints_partial() empty. We will
remove tcp_clear_retrans_hints_partial() and its call sites in the
next commit.
