net: hns3: fix for setting MTU

Browse source 
When setting MTU, actually what we do is configuring the max frame size
for the hardware. ETH_HLEN、ETH_FCS_LEN and VLAN_HLEN must need to be
considered. And the frame size which is less than the default value
should not be set to the hardware. Because in the hardware, the the max
frame size not only controls the RX packet size, but also controls the
TX packet size. the RX packets whose size are greater than the setting
value will be dropped.

This patch fixes the bug setting a error max frame size to hardware.
