The stack doesn't trust the complete csum by hardware

Can you explain that a little further?
In the case we fix csum by ourself
probably it is safe to just mark it as completed by software.
This should shut up a kernel warning from netdev_rx_csum_fault()
with mlx4 driver for ICMP packets.
can you point/paste the exact warning and how to reproduce that? is
that as simple as running ping and/or ping6?
