There is no way to bypass IP checksum verification in Linux
kernel, no matter skb->ip_summed is assigned as CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY
or CHECKSUM_PARTIAL.

So any packets with bad IP checksum will be dropped at VM IP layer.

To correct, we check this flag PKT_TX_IP_CKSUM to calculate IP csum.

Fixes: 859b480d5afd ("vhost: add guest offload setting")
