Subject: [1/3] gro: Fix handling of complete checksums in IPv6

Hi Dave:

Here are three bug fixes for GRO.

The first one makes sure we don't penalise CHECKSUM_COMPLETE
drivers for doing the right thing.

gro: Fix handling of complete checksums in IPv6

We need to perform skb_postpull_rcsum after pulling the IPv6
header in order to maintain the correctness of the complete
checksum.

This patch also adds a missing iph reload after pulling.
