    after act_csum computes the checksum on skbs carrying GSO TCP/UDP packets,
    subsequent segmentation fails because skb_needs_check(skb, true) returns
    true. Because of that, skb_warn_bad_offload() is invoked and the following
    message is displayed:
    
    WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 28 at net/core/dev.c:2553 skb_warn_bad_offload+0xf0/0xfd
    <...>
    
      [<ffffffff8171f486>] skb_warn_bad_offload+0xf0/0xfd
      [<ffffffff8161304c>] __skb_gso_segment+0xec/0x110
      [<ffffffff8161340d>] validate_xmit_skb+0x12d/0x2b0
      [<ffffffff816135d2>] validate_xmit_skb_list+0x42/0x70
      [<ffffffff8163c560>] sch_direct_xmit+0xd0/0x1b0
      [<ffffffff8163c760>] __qdisc_run+0x120/0x270
      [<ffffffff81613b3d>] __dev_queue_xmit+0x23d/0x690
      [<ffffffff81613fa0>] dev_queue_xmit+0x10/0x20
    
    Since GSO is able to compute checksum on individual segments of such skbs,
    we can simply skip mangling the packet.
