net: dsa: calculate the largest_mtu across all ports in the tree
If we have a cross-chip topology like this: sw0p0 sw0p1 sw0p2 sw0p3 sw0p4 [ cpu ] [ user ] [ user ] [ dsa ] [ user ] | +---------+ | sw1p0 sw1p1 sw1p2 sw1p3 sw1p4 [ user ] [ user ] [ user ] [ dsa ] [ dsa ] and we issue the following commands: 1. ip link set sw0p1 mtu 1700 2. ip link set sw1p1 mtu 1600 we notice the following happening: Command 1. emits a non-targeted MTU notifier for the CPU port (sw0p0) with the largest_mtu calculated across switch 0, of 1700. This matches sw0p0, sw0p3 and sw1p4 (all CPU ports and DSA links). Then, it emits a targeted MTU notifier for the user port (sw0p1), again with MTU 1700 (this doesn't matter). Command 2. emits a non-targeted MTU notifier for the CPU port (sw0p0) with the largest_mtu calculated across switch 1, of 1600. This matches the same group of ports as above, and decreases the MTU for the CPU port and the DSA links from 1700 to 1600. As a result, the sw0p1 user port can no longer communicate with its CPU port at MTU 1700. To address this, we should calculate the largest_mtu across all switches that may share a CPU port, and only emit MTU notifiers with that value.
