Section 4.3 of RFC6935 is pertinent:

"Applicability Statement for the Use of IPv6 UDP Datagrams with Zero
Checksums" [RFC6936] specifies requirements for middleboxes and
tunnels that need to traverse middleboxes.  Tunnel protocols intending
to use a zero UDP checksum need to ensure that they have defined a
method for handling cases when a middlebox prevents the path between
the tunnel ingress and egress from supporting transmission of
datagrams with a zero UDP checksum.  This is especially important as
middleboxes that conform to RFC 2460 are likely to discard datagrams
with a zero UDP checksum."
