Eli Cohen 1e00e821e4 net/mlx5: Add support for configuring max device MTU
Allow an admin creating a vdpa device to specify the max MTU for the
net device.

For example, to create a device with max MTU of 1000, the following
command can be used:

$ vdpa dev add name vdpa-a mgmtdev auxiliary/mlx5_core.sf.1 mtu 1000

This configuration mechanism assumes that vdpa is the sole real user of
the function. mlx5_core could theoretically change the mtu of the
function using the ip command on the mlx5_core net device but this
should not be done.

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.
