Subject: [PATCH] lpc_eth: add missing ndo_change_mtu()

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@...gle.com>

lpc_eth does a copy of transmitted skbs to DMA area, without checking
skb lengths, so can trigger buffer overflows :

memcpy(pldat->tx_buff_v + txidx * ENET_MAXF_SIZE, skb->data, len);

One way to get bigger skbs is to allow MTU changes above the 1500 limit.

Calling eth_change_mtu() in ndo_change_mtu() makes sure this cannot
happen.
