skbuff: Fix skb checksum flag on skb pull
VXLAN device can receive skb with checksum partial. But the checksum offset could be in outer header which is pulled on receive. This results in negative checksum offset for the skb. Such skb can cause the assert failure in skb_checksum_help(). Following patch fixes the bug by setting checksum-none while pulling outer header. Following is the kernel panic msg from old kernel hitting the bug. ------------[ cut here ]------------ kernel BUG at net/core/dev.c:1906!
