Subject: [PATCH 3/3] net: mhi: Increase the default MTU from 16K to 32K

Most of the Qualcomm endpoint devices are supporting 32K MTU for the
UL (Uplink) and DL (Downlink) channels. So let's use the same value
in the MHI NET driver also. This gives almost 2x increase in the throughput
for the UL channel.

Below is the comparision:

iperf on the UL channel with 16K MTU:

[ ID] Interval Transfer Bandwidth
[ 3] 0.0-10.0 sec 353 MBytes 296 Mbits/sec

iperf on the UL channel with 32K MTU:

[ ID] Interval Transfer Bandwidth
[ 3] 0.0-10.0 sec 695 MBytes 583 Mbits/sec

Why not SZ_32K?

Makes sense. Will change it in next iteration.

Hi Manivannan,

as it looks like there will be a v2: comparision -> comparison

You say here 'Most'. What happens on those which do not support 32K?
Do the packets get dropped and it turns into a black hole?

Yeah, and the host has to retransmit. But I checked again with Qcom on the MTU
size and got a different answer that forced me to change "most" to "few". So
this patch is not needed for now. I'll drop it.
