vrf: fix maximum MTU
My initial goal was to fix the default MTU, which is set to 65536, ie above the maximum defined in the driver: 65535 (ETH_MAX_MTU). In fact, it's seems more consistent, wrt min_mtu, to set the max_mtu to IP6_MAX_MTU (65535 + sizeof(struct ipv6hdr)) and use it by default. Let's also, for consistency, set the mtu in vrf_setup(). This function calls ether_setup(), which set the mtu to 1500. Thus, the whole mtu config is done in the same function. Before the patch: $ ip link add blue type vrf table 1234 $ ip link list blue 9: blue: <NOARP,MASTER> mtu 65536 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000 link/ether fa:f5:27:70:24:2a brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff $ ip link set dev blue mtu 65535 $ ip link set dev blue mtu 65536 Error: mtu greater than device maximum.
