[Intel-wired-lan] [next PATCH S57 11/11] i40e: mark the value passed to csum_replace_by_diff as __wsum

From: Jacob Keller <jacob.e.keller at intel.com>

Fix, or rather, avoid a sparse warning caused by the fact that
csum_replace_by_diff expects to receive a __wsum value. Since the
calculation appears to work, simply typecast the passed paylen value to
__wsum to avoid the warning.

This seems pretty fishy since __wsum was obviously annotated as
a separate type on purpose, so this throws the entire calculation into
question. Since it currently appears to behave as expected, the typecast
is probably safe.
