    parisc: Fix csum_ipv6_magic on 64-bit systems
    
    [ Upstream commit 4b75b12d70506e31fc02356bbca60f8d5ca012d0 ]
    
    hppa 64-bit systems calculates the IPv6 checksum using 64-bit add
    operations. The last add folds protocol and length fields into the 64-bit
    result. While unlikely, this operation can overflow. The overflow can be
    triggered with a code sequence such as the following.
    
            /* try to trigger massive overflows */
            memset(tmp_buf, 0xff, sizeof(struct in6_addr));
            csum_result = csum_ipv6_magic((struct in6_addr *)tmp_buf,
                                          (struct in6_addr *)tmp_buf,
                                          0xffff, 0xff, 0xffffffff);
    
    Fix the problem by adding any overflows from the final add operation into
    the calculated checksum. Fortunately, we can do this without additional
    cost by replacing the add operation used to fold the checksum into 32 bit
    with "add,dc" to add in the missing carry.
