I suggest using WARN_ON_ONCE() here and returning an error instead. Will
still allow debugging and won't disrupt the system.

We could do this check (including the BUG_ON/WARN check above) before
the actual crc32 calc. This can fail, and if it does, we will have
calculated it in vain. Note how offset doesn't really depend on the
checksum result.

I know skb_checksum_help also does it this way, maybe it was because of
some cache optimization on the offset += checksum offset  operation?
