When setting MTU, actually what we do is configuring the max frame size for the hardware. ETH_HLEN、ETH_FCS_LEN and VLAN_HLEN must need to be considered. And the frame size which is less than the default value should not be set to the hardware. Because in the hardware, the the max frame size not only controls the RX packet size, but also controls the TX packet size. the RX packets whose size are greater than the setting value will be dropped. This patch fixes the bug setting a error max frame size to hardware.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
