hello Benjamin,
these functions are not present anymore in the kernel since commit
cf53b1da73bd ('Revert "net: Add driver helper functions to determine
checksum"'). You might find some additional information on this thread
in linux-sctp (https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-sctp/msg05606.html),
there is an ongoing proposal for fixing Documentation/networking/checksum-offload.txt,
improve referenced paragraphs in include/linux/sk_buff.h, and maybe
extend the current API.
regards,
