Improve the checksum computation by using 64 bit integers instead of the 16 bit
integers in the existing implementation. This change speeds up the computation
with approximately 78% both on 64 bit and 32 bit systems.
Please see RFC 1071 for details.
Try a bit harder to make the kernel drop packets not for us. This should reduce
the number of wakeups from n^2 to n in the number of dhcp clients, which admittedly
only makes a differenc in very extreme cases.
