The cards exhibiting this input error are counting (valid) zero-checksum
UDP packets as input errors despite handling them just fine. This is a
documented errata.

I think the whole "problem" started when Intel opted to push all
interface errors into the input error counter in FreeBSD 13 which
surfaced this non-issue.
