dpdk: Fix MTU calc for NICs that support mtu<9216
Problem: rte_eth_dev_set_mtu() returns with failure from ThunderX NICVF DPDK PMD driver which supports MTU less than ETHERNET_MAX_PACKET_BYTES. rte_eth_dev_set_mtu() being called twice from dpdk_lib_init(): one via dpdk_device_setup() and second in dpdk_lib_init() itself. Currently dpdk_lib_init() passes vnet_hardware_interface->max_packet_bytes as an argument to rte_eth_dev_set_mtu() without consulting dev_info.max_rx_pktlen. NICs like i4oe, ixgbe can support MTU much greater than 9216 hence its not a problem for those NICS. Fix: This patch calculates dpdk_device->port_conf.rxmode.max_rx_pkt_len, vnet_hardware_interface->max_packet_bytes and MTU by consulting dev_info.max_rx_pktlen.
