Add a bpf_csum_level() helper which BPF programs can use in combination
with bpf_skb_adjust_room() when they pass in BPF_F_ADJ_ROOM_NO_CSUM_RESET
flag to the latter to avoid falling back to CHECKSUM_NONE.
The bpf_csum_level() allows to adjust CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY skb->csum_levels
via BPF_CSUM_LEVEL_{INC,DEC} which calls __skb_{incr,decr}_checksum_unnecessary()
on the skb. The helper also allows a BPF_CSUM_LEVEL_RESET which sets the skb's
csum to CHECKSUM_NONE as well as a BPF_CSUM_LEVEL_QUERY to just return the
current level. Without this helper, there is no way to otherwise adjust the
skb->csum_level. I did not add an extra dummy flags as there is plenty of free
bitspace in level argument itself iff ever needed in future.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
