If this is how the max_mtu is determined, does it make sense to set this
before registering the netdev, i.e. netdev->max_mtu in i40e_config_netdev()?


The absolute max is properly set but I think that's only true if we ensure the value of the MFS.

So if with another patch to set the MFS to the right value when asking a bigger MTU, having this value makes sense this is the absolute max for this device.
