Subject: [PATCH v1] vdpa: Warn if MTU configured is too low

Following the recommendation in virio spec 1.1, a device offering
VIRTIO_NET_F_MTU should set the mtu to at least 1280 bytes.

Print a warning if this recommendation is not met.

Can this function be used for warning? I have a quick cscope that
tells me it's probably used only for error.

Will it be better if we fail only when the device supports VERSION_1?

Thanks

Here's what I get:
# vdpa dev add name vdpa-a mgmtdev auxiliary/mlx5_core.sf.1 mtu 1279
Warning: vdpa: MTU is below recommended value

The vdpa device is created fine.

I'd add name of section here too.

Preferred is kind of confusing here. I guess you are trying to
say it's not mandatory but I don't think this conveys this information.

Recommended (matching text below)?

Pity we can't include the actual value here, but oh well. At least let's
include the recommended value, we can do that:
"MTU is below recommended value of " __stringify(VIRTIO_MIN_PREFERRED_MTU) "\n"
