For the case with missing NETIF_F_ALL_CSUM bits
skb_checksum_help() does not care for skb->encapsulation,
it works only by checking skb->csum_* fields. The
skb_set_inner_transport_header() and skb_set_transport_header()
calls simply update the header pointers for the drivers
that have NETIF_F_ALL_CSUM bits set.
What is your driver? I have to check why do you
have problem when NETIF_F_ALL_CSUM is not set. Is it
missing the NETIF_F_IP_CSUM (v4) and NETIF_F_IPV6_CSUM (v6) bits?
Also, can you clarify again which test has
the problem with broken csums? All 3 tests? Or it
depends on enabled HW csums?

Exactly, I was referring to this place. For IPv4
we do the same as your change in ip_vs_tunnel_xmit_prepare,
only that it is via iptunnel_handle_offloads() which in
addition to setting skb->encapsulation adds SKB_GSO_IPIP bit
for GSO purposes but skb_checksum_help() is called again
in dev_hard_start_xmit().
Don't forget that the devices with NETIF_F_ALL_CSUM set
need skb_reset_inner_headers() call, they use the
skb->inner_* fields. What I have done in the patch is
just to copy the handling from ip*_tunnel*.c. When
NETIF_F_ALL_CSUM is not set we call skb_checksum_help() and
then the device driver detects CHECKSUM_NONE, not
CHECKSUM_PARTIAL.
