Subject: [PATCH net 2/5] ibmvnic: Fix MTU settings

In the current driver, the MTU is set to the maximum value
capable for the backing device. This patch sets the MTU to the
default value for a Linux net device. It also corrects a
discrepancy between MTU values received from firmware, which includes
the ethernet header length, and net device MTU values. Finally, it removes
redundant min/max MTU assignments after device initialization.
