net/mlx4_en: optimizes get_fixed_ipv6_csum()

While trying to support CHECKSUM_COMPLETE for IPV6 fragments,
I had to experiments various hacks in get_fixed_ipv6_csum().
I must admit I could not find how to implement this :/

However, get_fixed_ipv6_csum() does a lot of redundant operations,
calling csum_partial() twice.

First csum_partial() computes the checksum of saddr and daddr,
put in @csum_pseudo_hdr. Undone later in the second csum_partial()
computed on whole ipv6 header.

Then nexthdr is added once, added a second time, then substracted.

payload_len is added once, then substracted.

Really all this can be reduced to two add_csum(), to add back 6 bytes
that were removed by mlx4 when providing hw_checksum in RX descriptor.
