Public bug reported:
We see that ping over ipoib interface stuck with large packets, this is a new
degradation, this test pass on Ubuntu 18.04.
After investigating the issue, we see that commit [1] introduce the issue, and
it is not an upstream commit, it is canonical commit.
Could you please check with the canonical kernel team why they revert that
commit?
To reproduce the bug, please use ConnectX-3 devices with ipoib connection with
2044 MTU (default) and run command [2].
Is there open Launchpad on it?

Revert "net: increase fragment memory usage limits"
This reverts commit c2a936600f78aea00d3312ea4b66a79a4619f9b4. It
made denial of service attacks on the IP fragment handling easier to
carry out.
