    net: bridge: disable bridge MTU auto tuning if it was set manually · 804b854d
    Nikolay Aleksandrov 提交于
    As Roopa noted today the biggest source of problems when configuring
    bridge and ports is that the bridge MTU keeps changing automatically on
    port events (add/del/changemtu). That leads to inconsistent behaviour
    and network config software needs to chase the MTU and fix it on each
    such event. Let's improve on that situation and allow for the user to
    set any MTU within ETH_MIN/MAX limits, but once manually configured it
    is the user's responsibility to keep it correct afterwards.
    
    In case the MTU isn't manually set - the behaviour reverts to the
    previous and the bridge follows the minimum MTU.
