This bug fix is not required for OVS use cases. But is it
nice to keep function consistent with upstream implementation.

Upstream commit:

    Earlier patch 6ae459bda tried to detect void ckecksum partial
    skb by comparing pull length to checksum offset. But it does
    not work for all cases since checksum-offset depends on
    updates to skb->data.

    Following patch fixes it by validating checksum start offset
    after skb-data pointer is updated. Negative value of checksum
    offset start means there is no need to checksum.
