In rmnet_map_ipv4_ul_csum_header() and rmnet_map_ipv6_ul_csum_header()
the offset within a packet at which checksumming should commence is
calculated.  This calculation involves byte swapping and a forced type
conversion that makes it hard to understand.

Simplify this by computing the offset in host byte order, then
converting the result when assigning it into the header field.

Rather than using skb_transport_header the correct pointer to use is
probably skb_checksum_start. The two are essentially synonymous but
the checksumming code is supposed to use skb_checksum_start.

Alternatively you could look at possibly using skb_network_header_len
as that would be the same value assuming that both headers are the
outer headers. Then you could avoid the extra pointer overhead.
