Subject: [PATCH v3] net: stmmac: fix maxmtu assignment to be within valid range

From: "Kweh, Hock Leong" <hock.leong.kweh@...el.com>

There is no checking valid value of maxmtu when getting it from device tree.
This resolution added the checking condition to ensure the assignment is
made within a valid range.

Signed-off-by: Kweh, Hock Leong <hock.leong.kweh@...el.com>

changelog v3:
* print the warning message only if maxmtu < min_mtu
* add maxmtu = JUMBO_LEN at stmmac_pci.c to follow stmmac_platform.c

changelog v2:
* correction of "devicetree" to "device tree" reported by Andy
* print warning message while maxmtu is not in valid range
