> 
> Use packet.show(dump) methods and packet reading to validate the  packets in

> the plain packets can be verified by method  checksum_validate. This updated
> method replaces checksum_validate_tunnel  in checksum offload cases.

> This patch also updates TSO packet checking. Replace the tcpdump
> implementation to a packet reading implementation.

> Packet reading implementation is more common to use when to verify the
> received packet count and payload size. The tcpdump method is not  able to
> recognize some of the tunnel packets, leading to a wrong output  failing the
> validation. Newly added tcpdump_analyse_sniff method is  implemented by sniff
> packet reading and analysing and can replace  the lagacy methods
> number_of_packets and number_of_bytes.
> 
> This patch also removes a redundant variable.

Applied, thanks
