Subject: [PATCH] virtio_net: set default mtu to 1500 when 'Device maximum MTU' bigger than 1500
Date:   Sat,  6 May 2023 10:15:29 +0800

When VIRTIO_NET_F_MTU(3) Device maximum MTU reporting is supported.
If offered by the device, device advises driver about the value of its
maximum MTU. If negotiated, the driver uses mtu as the maximum
MTU value. But there the driver also uses it as default mtu,
some devices may have a maximum MTU greater than 1500, this may
cause some large packages to be discarded, so I changed the MTU to a more
general 1500 when 'Device maximum MTU' bigger than 1500.
