[IPV6]: Update MSS even if MTU is unchanged.

This is needed because in ndisc.c, we have:

  static void ndisc_router_discovery(struct sk_buff *skb)
  {
  // ...
   if (ndopts.nd_opts_mtu) {
  // ...
   if (rt)
   rt->u.dst.metrics[RTAX_MTU-1] = mtu;

   rt6_mtu_change(skb->dev, mtu);
  // ...
  }

Since the mtu is set directly here, rt6_mtu_change_route thinks that
it is unchanged, and so it fails to update the MSS accordingly.  This
patch lets rt6_mtu_change_route still update MSS if old_mtu == new_mtu.
