net: Add driver helper functions to determine checksum offloadability
Add skb_csum_offload_chk driver helper function to determine if a device with limited checksum offload capabilities is able to offload the checksum for a given packet. This patch includes: - The skb_csum_offload_chk function. Returns true if checksum is offloadable, else false. Optionally, in the case that the checksum is not offloable, the function can call skb_checksum_help to resolve the checksum. skb_csum_offload_chk also returns whether the checksum refers to an encapsulated checksum. - Definition of skb_csum_offl_spec structure that caller uses to indicate rules about what it can offload (e.g. IPv4/v6, TCP/UDP only, whether encapsulated checksums can be offloaded, whether checksum with IPv6 extension headers can be offloaded). - Ancilary functions called skb_csum_offload_chk_help, skb_csum_off_chk_help_cmn, skb_csum_off_chk_help_cmn_v4_only.

+ * Arguments:
+ * skb - sk_buff for the packet in question
+ * spec - contains the description of what device can offload
+ * csum_encapped - returns true if the checksum being offloaded is
+ * encpasulated. That is it is checksum for the transport header
+ * in the inner headers.
+ * checksum_help - when set indicates that helper function should
+ * call skb_checksum_help if offload checks fail
+ *
+ * Returns:
+ * true: Packet has passed the checksum checks and should be offloadable to
+ * the device (a driver may still need to check for additional
+ * restrictions of its device)
+ * false: Checksum is not offloadable. If checksum_help was set then
+ * skb_checksum_help was called to resolve checksum for non-GSO
+ * packets and when IP protocol is not SCTP
