I do anticipate this patchset might bring to light some inaccuracies in
min/max mtu values currently implemented in various drivers, but for the
moment, I'm going for 100% identical behavior with what's currently in the
driver, and if you'll look down below...

                                         ^^^^
The 8191 was simply transplanted from right here. I think altering the
value should be the subject of a separate patch.
