[ Upstream commit 4408ba75e4ba80c91fde7e10bccccf388f5c09be ]
Calculating the IPv6 checksum on 32-bit systems missed overflows when
adding the proto+len fields into the checksum. This results in the
following unit test failure.
# test_csum_ipv6_magic: ASSERTION FAILED at lib/checksum_kunit.c:506
Expected ( u64)csum_result == ( u64)expected, but
( u64)csum_result == 46722 (0xb682)
( u64)expected == 46721 (0xb681)
not ok 5 test_csum_ipv6_magic
This is probably rarely seen in the real world because proto+len are
usually small values which will rarely result in overflows when calculating
the checksum. However, the unit test code uses large values for the length
field, causing the test to fail.
Fix the problem by adding the missing carry into the final checksum.

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.
