[TCP]: skb pcount with MTU discovery

The problem is that when doing MTU discovery, the too-large segments in
the write queue will be calculated as having a pcount of >1.  When
tcp_write_xmit() is trying to send, tcp_snd_test() fails the cwnd test
when pcount > cwnd.

The segments are eventually transmitted one at a time by keepalive, but
this can take a long time.

This patch checks if TSO is enabled when setting pcount.
