bpf: Clarify the meaning of BPF_F_PSEUDO_HDR

Browse Source 
In the bpf_l4_csum_replace helper, the BPF_F_PSEUDO_HDR flag should only
be set if the modified header field is part of the pseudo-header.

If you modify for example the UDP ports and pass BPF_F_PSEUDO_HDR,
inet_proto_csum_replace4 will update skb->csum even though it shouldn't
(the port and the UDP checksum updates null each other).
