Hmm.. I'd rather the test module did not have hard dependencies on
marginally important config options. We have done a pretty good job
so far limiting the requirements though separating the code out at
compilation object level. The more tests depend on netdevsim and the
more bots we have running tests against randconfig - the more important
this is.

This missing reference here is for calculating a checksum over a
constant header.. could we perhaps just hard code the checksum?
