The TCPMSS target is dropping SYN packets where:
1) There is data, or
2) The data offset makes the TCP header larger than
the packet.
Both of these result in an error level printk.
This change fixes the drop of SYN packets with data
(because the MSS option can safely be modified) and
passes packets with no MSS option instead of adding
one (which is not valid).
Can you explain why the automatic addition of a MSS option is removed?
