From: Daniele Di Proietto <diproiet...@vmware.com> The 'mtu_request' column can be used to set the MTU of a specific interface.
This column is useful because it will allow changing the MTU of DPDK devices (implemented in a future commit), which are not accessible outside the ovs-vswitchd process, but it can be used for kernel interfaces as well. The current implementation of set_mtu() in netdev-dpdk is removed because it's broken. It will be reintroduced by a subsequent commit on this series.
