This is the most timing critical code path of the TCP stack output
packet processing, and you're adding a read-modify-write operation
just to get some statistics correct.

Let's look for a cheaper test, perhaps something like:

        if (!before(TCP_SKB_CB(skb)->seq, tp->snd_nxt))
                TCP_INC_STATS(TCP_MIB_OUTSEGS);

Would that work?

It should, because tp->snd_nxt always advances on new data
via update_send_head().
