Ronak Doshi 34c1c01ea1 vmxnet3: update MTU after device quiesce ... [ Upstream commit 43f0999af0 ] Currently, when device mtu is updated, vmxnet3 updates netdev mtu, quiesces the device and then reactivates it for the ESXi to know about the new mtu. So, technically the OS stack can start using the new mtu before ESXi knows about the new mtu. This can lead to issues for TSO packets which use mss as per the new mtu configured. This patch fixes this issue by moving the mtu write after device quiesce.
