Commit Message

If the MFS is set below the default (0x2600), a warning message is
reported like the following :

	MFS for port 1 has been set below the default: 600

This message is a bit confusing as the number shown here (600) is in
fact an hexa number: 0x600 = 1536

Without any explicit "0x" prefix, this message is read like the MFS is
set to 600 bytes.

MFS, as per MTUs, are usually expressed in decimal base.

This commit reports both current and default MFS values in decimal
so it's less confusing for end-users.

A typical warning message looks like the following :

	MFS for port 1 (1536) has been set below the default (9728)

Hi Erwan,

If this is for (iwl-)net, then it should probably have a Fixes tag.
I expect it is sufficient to respond to this email with an appropriate tag.

That not withstanding, this looks good to me.
