virtio: Implement skb_partial_csum_set, for setting partial csums on untrusted packets.
Use it in virtio_net (replacing buggy version there), it's also going to be used by TAP for partial csum support. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Acked-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
