tcp: fix wrong checksum calculation on MTU probing
[ Upstream commit 2fe664f1fcf7c4da6891f95708a7a56d3c024354 ] With TCP MTU probing enabled and offload TX checksumming disabled, tcp_mtu_probe() calculated the wrong checksum when a fragment being copied into the probe's SKB had an odd length. This was caused by the direct use of skb_copy_and_csum_bits() to calculate the checksum, as it pads the fragment being copied, if needed. When this fragment was not the last, a subsequent call used the previous checksum without considering this padding. The effect was a stale connection in one way, as even retransmissions wouldn't solve the problem, because the checksum was never recalculated for the full SKB length.
