The results is very unlikely change every so often so we hardly need to divide again after doing that once for a connection. Yet, if divide still becomes necessary we detect that and do the right thing and again settle for non-divide state. Takes the u16 space which was previously taken by the plain xmit_size_goal. This should take care part of the tso vs non-tso difference we found earlier.
