%CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY means that the csum is correct / frame is not
damaged. So "checked" is not enough I'd say, it's "verified" at least.
OTOH that's too long already, I'd go with classic "csum_ok" :D

(also const, but I guess you'll do that either way after the previous
 mails)

I'm not a fan of variables shorter than u32 on the stack. And since it
gets passed by a reference, I'm not sure the compiler will inline it =\

Can we also remove this? Neither of these makes sense. ::ip_summed is
always zeroed after the memset() in __build_skb_around() (somewhere
there), while the assertion checks for `skb->ip_summed ==
CHECKSUM_NONE`, i.e. it's *always* true here (set and check :D). It's
some ancient pathetic rituals copied over and over again from e100
centuries or so...

...and BTW the comment is misleading, because the code doesn't zero
::csum_level as they claim :D

Since csum_level is useless when ip_summed is set to NONE, what do you
think about making the function return -1, 0, or 1 without writing
anything by reference?

	int csum_level;

	csum_level = ice_rx_csum_ok(rx_desc, ptype, ring);
	if (csum_level < 0)
		return;

	skb->ip_summed = CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY;
	skb->csum_level = csum_level;

I'm not saying it's better (might be a bit at codegen), just proposing.
