I don't think this is correct. See below.

AFAICT, this was introduced with:

daf52375c19f ("amd64: switch csum_partial_copy_generic() to new calling con=
ventions")

Cc'ed Al.

So the change in question is:

-	movl  %ecx, %eax        // Original code stores ECX in EAX
+	movl  $-1, %eax         // EAX is preset with -1

ECX (RCX) was the 4th parameter of the original ASM function call:

extern __visible __wsum csum_partial_copy_generic(const void *src, const vo=
id *dst,
                                        int len, __wsum sum,
                                        int *src_err_ptr, int *dst_err_ptr);

I.e. it handed @sum into the function which means a caller provided
seed.

With the above patch the ASM function call was changed to

extern __visible __wsum csum_partial_copy_generic(const void *src, void *ds=
t, int len);

I.e. the seed parameter was removed. AFAICT, all callers back then initiali=
zed
the seed parameter to 0 via the various wrapper interfaces which end up the=
re.

Al?

Thanks,
