ethdev: fix max Rx packet length check
Ethdev is using default Ethernet overhead to decide if provided
'max_rx_pkt_len' value is bigger than max (non jumbo) MTU value,
and limits it to MAX if it is.
Since the application/driver used Ethernet overhead is different than
the ethdev one, check result is wrong.
If the driver is using Ethernet overhead bigger than the default one,
the provided 'max_rx_pkt_len' is trimmed down, and in the driver when
correct Ethernet overhead is used to convert back, the resulting MTU is
less than the intended one, causing some packets to be dropped.
Like,
app -> max_rx_pkt_len = 1500/*mtu*/ + 22/*overhead*/ = 1522
ethdev -> 1522 > 1518/*MAX*/; max_rx_pkt_len = 1518
driver -> MTU = 1518 - 22 = 1496
Packets with size 1497-1500 are dropped although intention is to be able
to send/receive them.
The fix is to make ethdev use the correct Ethernet overhead for port,
instead of default one.
