[PATCH 2.6.35 1/3] r8169: fix rx checksum offload

Commit adea1ac7effbddbe60a9de6d63462bfe79289e59 upstream.

All skbs given to network stack had their ip_summed set to
CHECKSUM_NONE, while hardware said they had correct TCP/UDP checksums.
The reason is driver sets skb->ip_summed on the original skb before the
copy eventually done by copybreak. The fresh skb gets the ip_summed =
CHECKSUM_NONE value, forcing network stack to recompute checksum, and
preventing my GRO patch to work.

Fix is to make the ip_summed setting after skb copy.

Note : rx_copybreak current value is 16383, so all frames are copied...
