2017-06-29	arm64: add missing conversion to __wsum in ip_fast_csum()	Luc Van Oostenryck
	ARM64 implementation of ip_fast_csum() do most of the work in 128 or 64 bit and call csum_fold() to finalize. csum_fold() itself take a __wsum argument, to insure that this value is always a 32bit native-order value. Fix this by adding the sadly needed '__force' to cast the native 'sum' to the type '__wsum'.

2016-06-21	arm64: Implement optimised IP checksum helpers	Robin Murphy
	AArch64 is capable of 128-bit memory accesses without alignment restrictions, which makes it both possible and highly practical to slurp up a typical 20-byte IP header in just 2 loads. Implement our own version of ip_fast_checksum() to take advantage of that, resulting in considerably fewer instructions and memory accesses than the generic version. We can also get more optimal code generation for csum_fold() by defining it a slightly different way round from the generic version, so throw that into the mix too.
