Stephen Hemminger 7a4c53bee3 net: report invalid mtu value via netlink extack
If an invalid MTU value is set through rtnetlink return extra error
information instead of putting message in kernel log. For other cases
where there is no visible API, keep the error report in the log.

Example:
	# ip li set dev enp12s0 mtu 10000
	Error: mtu greater than device maximum.

	# ifconfig enp12s0 mtu 10000
	SIOCSIFMTU: Invalid argument
	# dmesg | tail -1
	[ 2047.795467] enp12s0: mtu greater than device maximum

README

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.
