Guillaume Nault e9697e2eff l2tp: ignore L2TP_ATTR_MTU
This attribute's handling is broken. It can only be used when creating
Ethernet pseudo-wires, in which case its value can be used as the
initial MTU for the l2tpeth device.
However, when handling update requests, L2TP_ATTR_MTU only modifies
session->mtu. This value is never propagated to the l2tpeth device.
Dump requests also return the value of session->mtu, which is not
synchronised anymore with the device MTU.

The same problem occurs if the device MTU is properly updated using the
generic IFLA_MTU attribute. In this case, session->mtu is not updated,
and L2TP_ATTR_MTU will report an invalid value again when dumping the
session.

It does not seem worthwhile to complexify l2tp_eth.c to synchronise
session->mtu with the device MTU. Even the ip-l2tp manpage advises to
use 'ip link' to initialise the MTU of l2tpeth devices (iproute2 does
not handle L2TP_ATTR_MTU at all anyway). So let's just ignore it
entirely.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
