Subject: ipv: Re-enable IP when MTU > 68
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.27-rc6~49^2~1
X-Git-Url: https://err.no/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=06770843c2f0f929a6e0c758dc433902a01aabfb;p=linux-2.6

ipv: Re-enable IP when MTU > 68

Re-enable IP when the MTU gets back to a valid size.

This patch just checks if the in_dev is NULL on a NETDEV_CHANGEMTU event
and if MTU is valid (bigger than 68), then re-enable in_dev.

Also a function that checks valid MTU size was created.
