Subject: Re: [PATCH net] ipv6: no CHECKSUM_PARTIAL on skbs with extension
 headers and recalc checksum during fragmentation

Yes, we've seen this in some drivers, but the conclusion is that those
drivers are *broken* and need to be fixed! CHECKSUM_PARTIAL works
perfectly well in the presence of extension headers if the
driver/device is correctly implemented (simple algorithm with
csum_start and csum_offset).
