The skge driver uses hardware receive checksum where it computes the sum of the packet (but does not check it). This kind of problem happens when some part of the call chain above it updates the packet but does not update the checksum. A fix like the following is presumably needed for some part of this path.
commit fa2da8cdae1dd64f78fc915ca1d1a4a93c71e7cb Author: stephen hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Date: Tue Nov 15 08:09:14 2011 +0000 bridge: correct IPv6 checksum after pull
Bridge multicast snooping of ICMPv6 would incorrectly report a checksum prob when used with Ethernet devices like sky2 that use CHECKSUM_COMPLETE. When bytes are removed from skb, the computed checksum needs to be adjusted.
