Comment:
OK and UNKNOWN are the most common cases: OK when checking is enabled, UNKNOWN 
when checking disabled. E.g. a router would not need check L4 checksum, so IPv4 
check would be on, but all L4 checksum checks off.

Initialization is more robust with UNKNOWN == 0. Odp-linux would save these 
along the other packet flags (init would be flags.all_bits = 0). On the other 
hand, HW specific implementation may not store this enum anywhere, but directly 
mask HW specific packet descriptor flags to produce the status. In that case, 
the values do not matter too much.
