lldpad should absolutely do that.
https://github.com/intel/openlldp/blob/master/lldp_8023.c#L701
Try to see what goes on and if there isn't, in fact, an error during the
netlink communication with the kernel.
Edit /usr/local/lib/systemd/system/lldpad.service:
ExecStart=/usr/local/sbin/lldpad -t -V 7
~~~~~
increases log level
Then run:
$ systemctl daemon-reload
$ journalctl -u lldpad.service -f &
$ ./ethtool_mm.sh eno0 swp0
During the test you should see:
lldpad[4764]: eno0: Link partner preemption capability supported
lldpad[4764]: eno0: Link partner preemption capability not enabled
lldpad[4764]: eno0: Link partner preemption capability not active
lldpad[4764]: eno0: Link partner minimum fragment size: 252 octets
lldpad[4764]: eno0: initiating MM verification with a retry interval of 127 ms...

Hmm, yeah, the test is dumb. lldpad has this logic, so if we request 0
it should still advertise 1.
if (config_add_frag_size < add_frag_size) {
LLDPAD_WARN("%s: Configured addFragSize (%d) smaller than the minimum value requested by kernel (%d). Using the latter\n",
bd->ifname, config_add_frag_size, add_frag_size);
config_add_frag_size = add_frag_size;
}
I guess that logic does engage, but the selftest doesn't expect that it
will, because it expects that lldpad will report back exactly the
requested value - and it will report the true value instead.
Luckily I know what to do here, see the patch below.

Subject: [PATCH] selftests: forwarding: ethtool_mm: support devices with
higher rx-min-frag-size
Some devices have errata due to which they cannot report ETH_ZLEN (60)
in the rx-min-frag-size. This was foreseen of course, and lldpad has
logic that when we request it to advertise addFragSize 0, it will round
it up to the lowest value that is _actually_ supported by the hardware.
The problem is that the selftest expects lldpad to report back to us the
same value as we requested.
Make the selftest smarter by figuring out on its own what is a
reasonable value to expect.
