xen-netfront: reset skb network header before checksum
In ed1f50c3 ("net: add skb_checksum_setup") we introduced some checksum functions in core driver. Subsequent change b5cf66cd ("xen-netfront: use new skb_checksum_setup function") made use of those functions to replace its own implementation. However with that change netfront is broken. It sees a lot of checksum error. That's because its own implementation of checksum function was a bit hacky (dereferencing skb->data directly) while the new function was implemented using ip_hdr(). The network header is not reset before skb is passed to the new function. When the new function tries to do its job, it's confused and reports error. The fix is simple, we need to reset network header before passing skb to checksum function. Netback is not affected as it already does the right thing.
