====================
sunvnet: add jumbo frames support
This patch set updates the sunvnet driver to version 1.6 of the VIO protocol
to support per-port exchange of MTU information and allow non-standard MTU
sizes, including jumbo frames.
Using large MTUs shows a nearly 5X throughput improvement Linux-Solaris
and > 10X throughput improvement Linux-Linux.
