  Currently, rte_ipv4_cksum() and rte_ipv4_udptcp_cksum() assume all IPv4
headers have sizeof(struct rte_ipv4_hdr) bytes. This is not true for
those (rare) packets with IPv4 options. Thus, both IPv4 and TCP/UDP
checksums are calculated wrong.

This patch fixes the issue by using the actual IPv4 header length from
the packet's IHL field.

v2:
* Use actual header length for sanity check as well.
* Introduce ip_hdr_len variable to increase readability.

Truly naive questions:
- doesn't it deserve a static inline function rte_ipv4_hdr_len()?
- how generated code for "* 4" compares with "<< 2"?

Makes sense to have that.

The code is the same if value is unsigned.

+1

However it could be in another patch: there are ~15 places where it
could be replaced in dpdk.

Thank you very much for your feedback. I will prepare a second patch for that
function.

OK thanks for working on the improvement.
