The jumbo frame commit (2fbbd712baf1) depends on the MTU
commit (2fbbd712baf1), so adding "Fixes: 2fbbd712baf1" (
instead of "Fixes: ca9c54d2d6a5") might make it easier for people
to notice and pick up this fix.

I'm OK if the patch remains as is. Just wanted to make  sure I
understand the issue here.

Good point. + Wei Hu, who can check the FreeBSD MANA driver and
the DPDK MANA PMD. The code there may also need to be fixed.

If the patch remains as is, gregkg will send us "failed to apply"
emails for v6.1.y and v5.15.y and we'll need to make a backport
for the 2 stable kernels.

With "Fixes: 2fbbd712baf1", we won't receive the "failed to apply"
emails.

Thanks,
Dexuan
