[RFC,3/3] batman-adv: Add support for jumbo frames
Commit Message
Since batman-adv is not actually depending on hardware capabilities, it has
no limit on the MTU. Only the lower hard interfaces can limit it. In case
these have an high enough MTU or fragmentation is enabled, a higher MTU
than 1500 can be enabled.
