I considered it ugly kludge but given we're dropping anyway
it should be ok.  So yes, I'll send you a formal patch, but not this
week, sorry :-|

Seems ifdefs are not enough, e.g. sctp would need libcrc32c module :-(

Not sure what to do at the moment, perhaps only do csum validation for
UDP and TCP, and rely on ipv4 csum alone for the rest?

For ipv6, this would obviously mean no csum validation except
for tcp and udp.
