MFC r272347:
The default for UDPLITE_RECV_CSCOV is zero. RFC 3828 recommend that this means full checksum coverage for received packets. If an application is willing to accept packets with partial coverage, it is expected to use the socket option and provide the minimum coverage it accepts.

This option sets the sender checksum coverage.
-A value of zero indicates that the entire packet
-is covered by the checksum.
-A value of 1 to 7 must be discarded by the receiver.

This option is the receiver-side analogue.
-It is truly optional, i.e. not required to enable traffic
-with partial checksum coverage.
-Its function is that of a traffic filter:
-when enabled, it instructs the kernel to drop
-all packets which have a coverage less than this value.
+A value of zero instructs the kernel to drop all received packets
+not having full checksum coverage.
