Subject: enic: fix rx skb checksum
From: Govindarajulu Varadarajan <_govind@xxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 17e96834fd35997ca7cdfbf15413bcd5a36ad448 ]
Hardware always provides compliment of IP pseudo checksum. Stack expects
whole packet checksum without pseudo checksum if CHECKSUM_COMPLETE is set.
This causes checksum error in nf & ovs.

Hardware verifies IP & tcp/udp header checksum but does not provide payload
checksum, use CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY. Set it only if its valid IP tcp/udp packet.
