How did you calculate that? IP header should be aligned to 4 bytes, UDP
header is 8 bytes, thus VXLAN header is also aligned to 4 bytes.

If you went this way, it would be better to make two local variables
for vx_flags and vx_vni, store to them and do a single put_unaligned
after the condition. That way, you would have two less put_unaligned and
no get_unaligned in the remote csum case. And the code would be
cleaner. And you're missing vx_flags being accessed in
vxlan_build_gbp_hdr.

But I think this is not needed at all, see above.
