Subject: [PATCH net-next 5/5 v2] net: gemini: Indicate that we can handle jumboframes

The hardware supposedly handles frames up to 10236 bytes and
implements .ndo_change_mtu() so accept 10236 minus the ethernet
header for a VLAN tagged frame on the netdevices. Use
ETH_MIN_MTU as minimum MTU.

Signed-off-by: Linus Walleij <linus.walleij@...aro.org>
---
ChangeLog v1->v2:
- Change the min MTU from 256 (vendor code) to ETH_MIN_MTU
  which makes more sense.
