> 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.
