you are right! thanks for spotting this.

maybe we can avoid adding braces, remove that 'else' keyword and the nested
'if',
thus saving one line, given that check_csum() returns the same set of values as
get_fixed_ipv{4,6}_checksum(), with the same meaning (-1 => go with
CHECKSUM_NONE,
0 => go with CHECKSUM_COMPLETE).

I will test and repost a v2 with this modification, unless you have any
objections. Thank you in advance!
