FWIW nfp defaults to CHECKSUM_COMPLETE if the device supports it (see if you have RXCSUM_COMPLETE in the probe logs). It supports UNNECESSARY as well, but IDK if there is a way to choose the preferred checksum types in the stack :( You'd have to edit the driver and remove the NFP_NET_CFG_CTRL_CSUM_COMPLETE from the NFP_NET_CFG_CTRL_RXCSUM_ANY mask to switch to using UNNECESSARY.
