[PATCH nf-next v3] netfilter: conntrack: skip verification of zero UDP checksum

From: Kevin Mitchell
Date: Fri Apr 29 2022 - 23:40:59 EST


The checksum is optional for UDP packets. However nf_reject would
previously require a valid checksum to elicit a response such as
ICMP_DEST_UNREACH.

Add some logic to nf_reject_verify_csum to determine if a UDP packet has
a zero checksum and should therefore not be verified.
