Yes correct. The idea is to have an option for user to choose either one big
frame or multiple fragments for a frame.

Before this patch we calculate each receive buffer based on mtu set by user.
Now user can use rx-buf-len but the old mtu based calculation is also there.
Here I am using rx_buf_len == 0 as a switch to calculate buffer length
using mtu or
just use length set by user. So here I am not setting rx_buf_len to some
default value.

As explained above buffer size will be calculated using mtu
now instead of rx-buf-len from ethtool.
