Subject: [PATCH nf-next 1/6] Revert "netfilter: conntrack: mark UDP zero checksum as CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY"

From: Florian Westphal <fw@...len.de>

This reverts commit 5bed9f3f63f8f9d2b1758c24640cbf77b5377511.

Gal Presman says:
 this patch broke geneve tunnels, or possibly all udp tunnels?
 A simple test that creates two geneve tunnels and runs tcp iperf fails
 and results in checksum errors (TcpInCsumErrors).

Original commit wanted to fix nf_reject with zero checksum,
so it appears better to change nf reject infra instead.
