I have no idea about why you see the messages.  I don't think
the patches which submitted previously for r8169.c  would cause
the problem. Although I have submitted some patches about IPv6,
the hw checksum should be off by default. That is, the behavior
should be the same with the previous one.
 
Best Regards,
Hayes
