This comment doesn't make as much sense now that the code isn't calling
GetSanitizedReferrer().  I suggest changing it  to something like
"URLRequest::set_referrer() ensures we do not send..."

[mef, 2013/03/14 20:31:38]

Done.

-  GURL referrer(request_->GetSanitizedReferrer());
+  GURL referrer(request_->referrer());
 
   // The referrer header must be suppressed if the preceding URL was
   // a secure one and the new one is not.
   if (referrer.SchemeIsSecure() && !request_->url().SchemeIsSecure()) {
     DVLOG(1) << "Suppressing referrer header since going from secure to "
                 "non-secure";
     referrer = GURL();
   }
 
   // Get the resource type (main_frame/script/image/stylesheet etc.
