Introduce skb->csum_not_inet to identify not-yet-checksummed SCTP packets. Use this bit in combination with netdev feature bit in validate_xmit_skb, to discriminate whether skb needs crc32c or 2-complement Internet Checksum (or none of the two, when the underlying device can do checksum offload).

Unfortunately this potentially pushes the skbuf flags over 32 bits if I count correctly. I suggest that you rename csum_bad to csum_not_inet. Looks like csum_bad is only set by a grand total of one driver and I don't believe that is enough to justify its existence. It's probably a good time to remove it.

Return value looks complex. Maybe we should just change skb_csum_*_help to return bool, true of checksum was handled false if not.
