Subject: [PATCH 4.16 112/279] vti6: Change minimum MTU to IPV4_MIN_MTU, vti6 can carry IPv4 too

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

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

From: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@...hat.com>

[ Upstream commit b4331a681822b420511b3258f1c3db35001fde48 ]

A vti6 interface can carry IPv4 as well, so it makes no sense to
enforce a minimum MTU of IPV6_MIN_MTU.

If the user sets an MTU below IPV6_MIN_MTU, IPv6 will be
disabled on the interface, courtesy of addrconf_notify().

Reported-by: Xin Long <lucien.xin@...il.com>
Fixes: b96f9afee4eb ("ipv4/6: use core net MTU range checking")
Fixes: c6741fbed6dc ("vti6: Properly adjust vti6 MTU from MTU of lower device")
Fixes: 53c81e95df17 ("ip6_vti: adjust vti mtu according to mtu of lower device")
