Please compile test your patches:

net/ipv4/udp.c: In function ‘udp_queue_rcv_skb’:
net/ipv4/udp.c:1538:5: error: label ‘csum_error’ used but not defined
make[1]: *** [net/ipv4/udp.o] Error 1
make: *** [net/ipv4/udp.o] Error 2

The encapsulation handling above your changes still use that label.

Besides, I see no reason to replace the goto csum_error; with
doing the counter bump by hand and jumping to "drop".  Especially
since, as per above, there is another code path which can make
use of and thus share that csum_error label code.
