Subject: [PATCH net-next v3] net: Add sysfs atttribute for max_mtu

For drivers like MANA, max_mtu value is populated with the value of
maximum MTU that the underlying hardware can support.
Exposing this attribute as sysfs param, would be helpful in debugging
and customization of config issues with such drivers.

 Changes in v3:
 * Removed the min_mtu sysfs attribute as it was not needed
 * Improved the commit message to explain the need for the changes
 * Seperated this patch from other mana attributes requirements.
