why do you want tp avoid forwarding? did you mean

please rewrite so the text makes sense in the final C file,
not for someone reading the diff. In that cotext it does not
matter that we used to drop packets or that we used to
disable _F_GUEST_CSUM unless you explain
why they had to be dropped previously.

What does the last sentence mean?
Instead please explain why this is necessary. what can change the

What if checksum was disabled on device? No need for all the
elaborate hacks then, right?
What about disabling by ethtool?
