Subject: md: stop using csum_partial for checksum calculation in md
From: NeilBrown <neilb@xxxxxxx>
If CONFIG_NET is not selected, csum_partial is not exported, so md.ko cannot
use it. We shouldn't really be using csum_partial anyway as it is an
internal-to-networking interface.
So replace it with C code to do the same thing. Speed is not crucial here, so
something simple and correct is best.
