You should add a dependency on the mangle table then.

+	  You can use this target to compute and fill in the checksum in
+	  a packet that lacks a checksum.  This is particularly useful,
+	  if you need to work around old applications such as dhcp clients,
+	  that do not work well with checksum offloads, but don't want to disable
+	  checksum offload in your device.
+
+	  To compile it as a module, choose M here.  If unsure, say N.
