I tried to look up the origin of this bug, and it seems to be a hard-to-spot fallout from the 'centralized MTU checking'. Not easy to see the hidden connection in usbnet.c and eth.c. Thanks for finding and fixing it! This should probably go to stable as well? Acked-by: Bjørn Mork <bjorn@mork.no>

usbnet creates network interfaces with min_mtu = 0 and max_mtu = ETH_MAX_MTU. These values are not modified by qmi_wwan when the network interface is created initially, allowing, for example, to set mtu greater than 1500. When a raw_ip switch is done (raw_ip set to 'Y', then set to 'N') the mtu values for the network interface are set through ether_setup, with min_mtu = ETH_MIN_MTU and max_mtu = ETH_DATA_LEN, not allowing anymore to set mtu greater than 1500 (error: mtu greater than device maximum). The patch restores the original min/max mtu values set by usbnet after a raw_ip switch.
