Subject: [PATCH net v2 4/7] net: hibmcge: fix wrong mtu log issue

A dbg log is generated when the driver modifies the MTU,
which is expected to trace the change of the MTU.

However, the log is recorded after WRITE_ONCE().
At this time, netdev->mtu has been changed to the new value.
As a result, netdev->mtu is the same as new_mtu.

This patch modifies the log location and records logs before WRITE_ONCE().
