Something is changed between 4.17.12 and 4.18, after bisecting the problem I
got the following first bad commit:

commit 88078d98d1bb085d72af8437707279e203524fa5
Author: Eric Dumazet [off-list ref]
Date:   Wed Apr 18 11:43:15 2018 -0700

     net: pskb_trim_rcsum() and CHECKSUM_COMPLETE are friends

     After working on IP defragmentation lately, I found that some large
     packets defeat CHECKSUM_COMPLETE optimization because of NIC adding
     zero paddings on the last (small) fragment.

     While removing the padding with pskb_trim_rcsum(), we set skb->ip_summed
     to CHECKSUM_NONE, forcing a full csum validation, even if all prior
     fragments had CHECKSUM_COMPLETE set.

     We can instead compute the checksum of the part we are trimming,
     usually smaller than the part we keep.

Thanks for bisecting !

This commit is known to expose some NIC/driver bugs.

Look at commit 12b03558cef6d655d0d394f5e98a6fd07c1f6c0f
("net: sungem: fix rx checksum support")  for one driver needing a fix.

I assume SKY2_HW_NEW_LE is not set on your NIC ?

I've seen similar on several systems with mlx4 cards when using 4.18.x -
that is hw csum failure followed by some backtrace.

Only seems to happen on systems dealing with quite a bit of UDP.

Strange, because mlx4 on IPv6+UDP should not use CHECKSUM_COMPLETE,
but CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY

I would be nice to track this a bit further, maybe by providing the
full packet content.

As a matter of fact Dimitris found the issue in the patch and is working on a fix involving csum_block_sub()

Problems comes from trimming an odd number of bytes.

More exactly, trimming bytes starting at an odd offset.
