Subject: [net-next v2 05/15] igb: Update MTU so that it is always at least a standard frame size

From: Alexander Duyck <alexander.h.duyck@...el.com>

This change makes it so that we limit the lower bound for max_frame_size to
the size of a standard Ethernet frame.  This allows for feature parity with
other Intel based drivers such as ixgbe.
