Subject: [PATCH V1 net-next] net/vxlan: Share RX skb de-marking and checksum checks with ovs

Make sure the practice set by commit 0afb166 "vxlan: Add capability
of Rx checksum offload for inner packet" is applied when the skb
goes through the portion of the RX code which is shared between
vxlan netdevices and ovs vxlan port instances.

Dave - I marked it net-next so it goes into 3.14 since "net" isn't 
open yet... from there it should obviously land in -stable of kernels >= 3.12
