Comment:
These three values are needed. For example, we cannot dictate that all HW must
be able to calculate checksums when there are extension headers. Still some HW
can do that. So, even if application enabled checksumming, it depends on the
packet and on the implementation if check was done or not. We just dictate that
basic packets (no options / extensions) must always be checked when
checksumming is enabled.
