[PATCH] gdhcp: Allow client to work on veth devices

[Denis Kenzior <denkenz@gmail.com>]

veth devices do not compute a checksum over the entire message.  They
simply pre-compute the pseudo-header portion and include this in the
checksum field.  Support such devices by computing the partial checksum.
If the partial checksum matches, accept the packet.
