Subject: MIPS: Fix special case in 64 bit IP checksumming.

From: Ralf Baechle <[email protected]>

commit 66fd848cadaa6be974a8c780fbeb328f0af4d3bd upstream.

For certain arguments such as saddr = 0xc0a8fd60, daddr = 0xc0a8fda1, len = 80, proto = 17, sum = 0x7eae049d there will be a carry when folding the intermediate 64 bit checksum to 32 bit but the code doesn't add the carry back to the one's complement sum, thus an incorrect result will be generated.
