Since v5.1-rc1, some types of packets do not get unreachable reply with the
following iptables setting. Fox example,

$ iptables -A INPUT -p icmp --icmp-type 8 -j REJECT
$ ping 127.0.0.1 -c 1
PING 127.0.0.1 (127.0.0.1) 56(84) bytes of data.
— 127.0.0.1 ping statistics —
1 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 0ms

We should have got the following reply from command line, but we did not.
>From 127.0.0.1 icmp_seq=1 Destination Port Unreachable

Yi Zhao reported it and narrowed it down to:
7fc38225363d ("netfilter: reject: skip csum verification for protocols that don't support it"),

This is because nf_ip_checksum still expects pseudo-header protocol type 0 for
packets that are of neither TCP or UDP, and thus ICMP packets are mistakenly
treated as TCP/UDP.

This patch corrects the conditions in nf_ip_checksum and all other places that
still call it with protocol 0.

Fixes: 7fc38225363d ("netfilter: reject: skip csum verification for protocols that don't support it")
