I see, but lio_dev_change_vf_mtu() does not set anything at all. If it
is not modifying anything at all, why you claim "MTU update" supported?

And following logic seems wrong for this case:

        ...
        if (lio_dev->linfo.link.s.mtu != mtu) {
                ret = lio_dev_change_vf_mtu(eth_dev, mtu);
        ...

Should this functions set lio_dev->linfo.link.s.mtu at least, perhaps?
