Subject: [net-next 5/8] ixgbe: Correct handling of any outer UDP checksum setting

From: Mark Rustad <mark.d.rustad@...el.com>

If an outer UDP checksum is set, pass the skb up with CHECKSUM_NONE
so that the stack will check the checksum. Do not increment an
error counter, because we don't know that there is an actual error.
