Subject: [PATCH 4.4 116/268] sit: fix IFLA_MTU ignored on NEWLINK

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Xin Long <lucien.xin@...il.com>

[ Upstream commit 2b3957c34b6d7f03544b12ebbf875eee430745db ]

Commit 128bb975dc3c ("ip6_gre: init dev->mtu and dev->hard_header_len
correctly") fixed IFLA_MTU ignored on NEWLINK for ip6_gre. The same
mtu fix is also needed for sit.

Note that dev->hard_header_len setting for sit works fine, no need to
fix it. sit is actually ipv4 tunnel, it can't call ip6_tnl_change_mtu
to set mtu.
