This is 100% true for physical NICs, it's more complicated for veth, bacause it 
often receives CHECKSUM_PARTIAL, which shouldn't normally apprear on RX, but is 
treated by the network stack as a validated checksum, because there is no way 
internally generated packet could be messed up. I would be grateful if you could 
look at the veth patch and share your opinion about this.

Yes, that is the idea.
