While grepping IPFail variable, maybe cp_rx_csum_ok() in 8139cp driver also has same bug.
There is no NIC on hand using RealTek RTL-8139C+ series 10/100 PCI Ethernet driver, 
So don't confirm it.

[PATCH] 8139cp: fix checksum broken

I am not family with RealTek RTL-8139C+ series 10/100 PCI Ethernet driver. 
I try to guess the meaning of RxProtoIP and IPFail. 
RxProtoIP stands for received IPv4 packet that upper protocol is not tcp and udp. 
!(status & IPFail) is true means that driver correctly to check checksum in IPv4 header.

If these are right, driver will set ip_summed with CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY for other
upper protocol, e.g. sctp, igmp protocol. This will cause protocol stack ignores 
checksum check for packets with invalid checksum. 

This patch is only compile-test.
