tcp: remove redundant code from tcp_mark_lost_retrans

Browse Source 
Arnd Hannemann <hannemann@nets.rwth-aachen.de> noticed and was
puzzled by the fact that !tcp_is_fack(tp) leads to early return
near the beginning and the later on tcp_is_fack(tp) was still
used in an if condition. The later check was a left-over from
RFC3517 SACK stuff (== !tcp_is_fack(tp) behavior nowadays) as
there wasn't clear way how to handle this particular check
cheaply in the spirit of RFC3517 (using only SACK blocks, not
holes + SACK blocks as with FACK). I sort of left it there as
a reminder but since it's confusing other people just remove
it and comment the missing-feature stuff instead.
