> 
> There is an 82599 errata that UDP frames with a zero checksum are
> incorrectly marked as checksum invalid by the hardware.  This was
> leading to misleading PKT_RX_L4_CKSUM_BAD flag.
> 
> This patch changes the bad UDP checksum to PKT_RX_L4_CKSUM_UNKNOWN,
> so the software application will then have to recompute the checksum
> itself if needed.

> v2: Change the always GOOD checksum to UNKOWN if BAD.
