net/mlx5e: kTLS, Use CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY for device-offloaded packets
commit 7eaf1f3 upstream. For RX TLS device-offloaded packets, the HW spec guarantees checksum validation for the offloaded packets, but does not define whether the CQE.checksum field matches the original packet (ciphertext) or the decrypted one (plaintext). This latitude allows architetctural improvements between generations of chips, resulting in different decisions regarding the value type of CQE.checksum. Hence, for these packets, the device driver should not make use of this CQE field. Here we block CHECKSUM_COMPLETE usage for RX TLS device-offloaded packets, and use CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY instead. Value of the packet's tcp_hdr.csum is not modified by the HW, and it always matches the original ciphertext.
