I'm not sure I would call it a bug. Setting the MTU to max
automatically is a policy decision more than anything else. Currently,
you have to enable connected mode, then set the MTU. Both initscripts
and NetworkManager do this for you on Red Hat, so the user sees no
difference here. I can't speak to other OSes. I'm OK with setting
connected mode MTU to max by default once we get the scatter/gather
support for IPoIB added.
