Subject: [PATCH v2] net/vmxnet3: Added mtu_set() function to allow setting MTU.

    From: Charles Myers <charles.my...@spirent.com>
    
    When the mtu_set() function is not implemented, rte_eth_dev_set_mtu()
    fails with -ENOTSUP and mtu is not stored in the mtu field in the
    rte_eth_dev_data.  This causes the mtu in Vmxnet3_MiscConf which is
    shared with hypervisor to always be set to 1500.
    
    This may cause issues receiving jumbo frames on Enhanced Data Path
    N-VDS.

    Hopefully this resubmission fixes it.

It looks like the above check is redundant as rte_eth_dev_set_mtu() already 
checks the same based on dev_info->min_mtu and max_mtu.  But seems many other 
drivers are doing the same check so probably a separate patch to clean this up.

    +           return -EBUSY;

Can you add the following for the vmxnet3 backend to see the change:

        dev->data->mtu = mtu;  /* this is needed because vmxnet3_dev_start use 
this to update the backend but  rte_eth_dev_set_mtu() set it after the driver 
callback */

        /* changing mtu for vmxnet3 pmd does not require a restart
