[PATCH 4.0 002/220] net: add skb_checksum_complete_unset

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Sat May 02 2015 - 15:08:03 EST


4.0-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Tom Herbert <tom@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 4e18b9adf2f910ec4d30b811a74a5b626e6c6125 ]

This function changes ip_summed to CHECKSUM_NONE if CHECKSUM_COMPLETE
is set. This is called to discard checksum-complete when packet
is being modified and checksum is not pulled for headers in a layer.
