[NETFILTER]: Add partial checksum validation helper
Move the UDP-Lite conntrack checksum validation to a generic helper similar to nf_checksum() and make it fall back to nf_checksum() in case the full packet is to be checksummed and hardware checksums are available. This is to be used by DCCP conntrack, which also needs to verify partial checksums. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>
