| If there is no socket filter, a bad checksum udp packet will be queued and
| ready for user to read. At the same time the InDatagrams is increased.
| So we need to decrement InDatagrams when recvmsg() or poll() notice the
| bad checksum.
|
| Seems Gerrit had fix it a year ago.(http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/8/28/218)
| But it's not in kernel now. So I make the same patch for 2.6.24.rc2.

The problem is known: packets with failed checksums will still increment
InDatagrams. The solution is also known (as acknowledged above). I
remember the discussion about this kind of solution: the problem is
apparently that these variables may sit on different CPUs, so that first
incrementing, and then later decrementing, would not have the desired
effect.
Desirable would be to only increment InDatagrams after passing all the
checksum tests (i.e. in udp_recvmsg). This solution was also discussed
on netdev, but people said that this would lead to trouble with the
data_ready handler (notably NFS).
| If this patch ok, I will make the same one for IPv6 UDP.
