We can, no strong preference.

That should work, I think.
Should we still check the segment boundaries, tho?
A bit worrying to have packets floating around the stack with clearly
broken csum offset. At the same time maybe the modulo isn't free..

I don't have any extra info, beyond what's in the commit message :(
Note that the syzbot report says 6.7, too.
Denis, can you comment? Do you have a repro?

Yes, I don't think the fix actually fixed the quoted warning :/
I decided to redo what it seem to have intended to fix in an un-broken
way, but the underlying issue is different.
