macvlan should enforce a minimal mtu of 68, even at link creation.
This patch avoids the current behavior (which could lead to crashes
in ipv6 stack if the link is brought up)
$ ip link add macvlan1 link eno1 mtu 8 type macvlan # This should fail !
$ ip link sh dev macvlan1
5: macvlan1@eno1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 8 qdisc noop
state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
link/ether 02:47:6c:24:74:82 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
$ ip link set macvlan1 mtu 67
Error: mtu less than device minimum.
$ ip link set macvlan1 mtu 68
$ ip link set macvlan1 mtu 8
Error: mtu less than device minimum.

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.
