Endian swapping looks correct, and I like the patch a lot in general,
but:

Just nitpicking: this prototype should to into asm-generic/checksum.h,
extern declarations have no place in .c files.

You define separate test vectors for each of the three
cases, which looks like it could be optimized by reusing
the same test vectors for each case.

For partial checksums, the result has to be folded into a 16-bit
number using csum_fold(), because csum_partial and other functions
return a 32-bit __wsum that can take many equivalent values taht
are all correct.

same here, but you can easily use csum_tcpudp_magic() instead of
csum_tcpudp_nofold here.
