There were two possible solutions. The netfilter conntrack code could trim the packet, discarding the extra padding and adjusting the checksum. Or it can force regular non-offloaded checksum. This patch implements the latter on the principal that is better for firewall code to not modify the packet. Compile tested only; haven't been able to reproduce the problem yet.
