Currently, if the user changes the pause settings, the default settings will be restored after an interface down/up cycle, and also when resuming from suspend. This doesn't seem to provide the best user experience. Change this to keep user settings, and just ensure that in jumbo mode pause is disabled. Small drawback: When switching back mtu from jumbo to non-jumbo then pause remains disabled (but user can enable it using ethtool). I think that's a not too common scenario and acceptable.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
