igb/ixgbe have hardware sctp checksum support, when this feature is enabled
and also IPsec is armed to protect sctp traffic, ugly things happened as
xfrm_output checks CHECKSUM_PARTIAL to do check sum operation(sum every thing
up and pack the 16bits result in the checksum field). The result is fail
establishment of sctp communication.

v3:
  - Rename is_xfrm_armed by dst_xfrm
  - Move this funtion in include/net/dst.h

v2:
  - Split v1 into two separate patches.
