[PATCH v2 06/20] csum_and_copy_..._user(): pass 0xffffffff instead of 0 as initial sum

[Al Viro]

From: Al Viro <viro@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Preparation for the change of calling conventions; right now all
callers pass 0 as initial sum.  Passing 0xffffffff instead yields
the values comparable mod 0xffff and guarantees that 0 will not
be returned on success.

Note that this relies upon the correct behaviour with arbitrary
initial sum and the above pretty much says "it's been untested
with anything other than 0".  Analysis is unpleasant, to put it
mildly, but the suckers _are_ handling it correctly, surprisingly
enough.  Perhaps not too surprisingly, since most of the instances
share the code with csum_partial_copy_nocheck(), which used to get
some testing due to icmp_push_reply()...
