[PATCH] net: fix csum calculation for encapsulated packets

From: 沈安琪(凛玥)

This commit fixes the issue that when a packet is encapsulated, such as
sending through a UDP tunnel, the outer TCP/UDP checksum is not
correctly recalculated if (1) checksum has been offloaded to hardware
and (2) encapsulated packet has been NAT-ed again, which causes the
packet being dropped due to the invalid outer checksum.

Previously, when an encapsulated packet met some NAT rules and its
src/dst ip and/or src/dst port has been modified,
inet_proto_csum_replace4 will be invoked to recalculated the outer
checksum. However, if the packet is under the following condition: (1)
checksum offloaded to hardware and (2) NAT rule has changed the src/dst
port, its outer checksum will not be recalculated, since (1)
skb->ip_summed is set to CHECKSUM_PARTIAL due to csum offload and (2)
pseudohdr is set to false since port number is not part of pseudo
header. This leads to the outer TCP/UDP checksum invalid since it does
not change along with the port number change.

In this commit, another condition has been added to recalculate outer
checksum: if (1) the packet is encapsulated, (2) checksum has been
offloaded, (3) the encapsulated packet has been NAT-ed to change port
number and (4) outer checksum is needed, the outer checksum for
encapsulated packet will be recalculated to make sure it is valid.
