I have one practical reason for doing this and one concerning correctness. The practical reason has to do with a follow-up patch, which aims to mix 2 sources of max_sdu (one coming from the user and the other automatically calculated based on TC gate durations @current link speed). Among those 2 sources of input, we must always select the smaller max_sdu value, but this can change at various link speeds. So the max_sdu coming from the user must be kept separated from the value that is operationally used (the minimum of the 2), because otherwise we overwrite it and forget what the user asked us to do. To solve that, this patch proposes that struct sched_gate_list contains the operationally active max_frm_len, and q->max_sdu contains just what was requested by the user. The reason having to do with correctness is based on the following observation: the admin sched_gate_list becomes operational at a given base_time in the future. Until then, it is inactive and applies no shaping, all gates are open, etc. So the queueMaxSDU dropping shouldn't apply either (this is a mechanism to ensure that packets smaller than the largest gate duration for that TC don't hang the port; clearly it makes little sense if the gates are always open).

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.
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.
