This patch reverts the commit 6e7bc478c9a0
("net: skb_needs_check() accepts CHECKSUM_NONE for tx"),
because we removed the UFO support.

I would wait until net is merged into net-next. This will cause a conflict.

Also, while logically equivalent, it is not a real revert (as in `git
revert $SHA1`) of that patch.

Aside from those concerns, I agree that the original patch is no
longer needed now that UFO is reverted.
