 The ol_flag is set in application, we have to fill 'csum_start' and  'csum_offset' based on these offload flags. 
As long as the 'csum_start' and  'csum_offset'  fileds are set correctly, and it can work well with a vanilla linux with vhost.

But in DPDK vhost lib, we need to parse the 'csum_start' and  'csum_offset' filed to get the which offload flags should be set, and the l2_len, l3_len and l3_len also should be filled.

So I think it is necessary to do this in both side.
We can continue discuss this if you have further comments. Thanks
