[Bridge] [PATCH 0/2] net: Set maximum receive packet size on veth interfaces

[Fredrik Markstrom]

Currently veth drops all packets larger then the mtu set on the receiving
end of the pair. This is inconsistent with most hardware ethernet drivers.

This patch set adds a new driver attribute to set the maximum size of
received packet to make it possible to create configurations similar to
those possible with (most) hardware ethernet interfaces.

The set consists of two patches. The first one adding a parameter do the
dev_forward_skb functions to specify the maximum packet size, the
second one implents a new attribute (VETH_MRU) in the veth driver.
