Introduce bpf_xdp_metadata_rx_checksum() kfunc in order to load the HW RX cheksum results in the eBPF program binded to the NIC. Implement xmo_rx_checksum callback for veth and ice drivers.
If the hardware detects a wrong/failed checksum, it will report CHECKSUM_NONE in the packet metadata. Moreover, CHECKSUM_NONE will be returned even if the NIC can't parse the packet (e.g. if it does not support a specific protocol). A possible use case for bpf_xdp_metadata_rx_checksum() would be to implement a XDP DDoS application [1] combining the info from bpf_xdp_metadata_rx_checksum() and bpf_xdp_metadata_rx_hash() kfuncs in order to filter packets with a wrong/failed checksum.
