The root cause is that get_udptcp_cksum_mbuf is using m->pkt_len
which maybe larger than the actual data. The real issue is there and
in rte_ip.h checksum code. The correct fix would be to use l3_len instead.

It also looks like test-pmd is not validating the IP header.
Both parse_ipv4() and parse_ipv6() should check if packet was truncated.
Same for both UDP and TCP lengths.
