Fix checksum problems in the GSO code path for CHECKSUM_HW packets.

The ipv4 TCP pseudo header checksum has to be adjusted for GSO
segmented packets.

The adjustment is needed because the length field in the pseudo-header
changes.  However, because we have the inequality oldlen > newlen, we
know that delta = (u16)~oldlen + newlen is still a 16-bit quantity.
This also means that htonl(delta) + th->check still fits in 32 bits.
Therefore we don't have to use csum_add on this operations.

This is based on a patch by Michael Chan <mchan@broadcom.com>.
