I think you didn't understand my comment.
I talk about NICs which don't have tunneling support.
In this case, the outer IP header is seen as a simple IP header.
So, depending on which port is receiving a tunneled packet, this
flag or the dedicated one can be used for outer IP checksum.

I just suggest to remove the part "(or inner IP)" of the comment.
Do you agree?
