Subject: 4.19 - tons of hw csum failure errors

Hi,

just wanted to report, thet after switching to 4.19 (fro 4.14.x, so maybe
the problem appeared somewhere between), I'm getting tons of similar
messages:

it's being reported for various kernel threads (swapper, ksoftirqd, ...)


I tried applying

commit db4f1be3ca9b0ef7330763d07bf4ace83ad6f913
Author: Sean Tranchetti <stranche@...eaurora.org>
Date:   Tue Oct 23 16:04:31 2018 -0600

    net: udp: fix handling of CHECKSUM_COMPLETE packets

but to no avail..

the system is running virtual machines and using openvswitch with
following simple topology:

[root@xxx tmp]# ovs-vsctl show
22519243-4f9e-47dc-ac8c-3635f6595c4d
    Bridge brovs
        Port brovs
            Interface brovs
                type: internal
        Port "bond0"
            Interface "eth2"
            Interface "eth3"
        Port "vnet0"
            tag: 502
            Interface "vnet0"
        Port brdef
            tag: 0
            Interface brdef
                type: internal
        Port "br51"
            tag: 51
            Interface "br51"
                type: internal
        Port "br50"
            tag: 50
            Interface "br50"
                type: internal
        Port "br501"
            tag: 501
            Interface "br501"
                type: internal
    ovs_version: "2.5.0"

is this some known problem? may I provide some additional info?
