Cover letter [PATCH net-next 0/2] gue: Generalize remote checksum offload

The remote checksum offload is generalized by creating a common function (remcsum_adjust) that does the work of modifying the checksum in remote checksum offload. This function can be called from normal or GRO path. GUE was modified to use this function.

Remote checksum offload is described in
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-herbert-remotecsumoffload-01

Tested by running 200 TCP_STREAM connections over GUE, did not see any problems with remote checksum offload enabled.
