net: cdc_ncm: avoid changing RX/TX buffers on MTU changes
[ Upstream commit 1dfddff5fcd869fcab0c52fafae099dfa435a935 ] NCM buffer sizes are negotiated with the device independently of the network device MTU. The RX buffers are allocated by the usbnet framework based on the rx_urb_size value set by cdc_ncm. A single RX buffer can hold a number of MTU sized packets. The default usbnet change_mtu ndo only modifies rx_urb_size if it is equal to hard_mtu. And the cdc_ncm driver will set rx_urb_size and hard_mtu independently of each other, based on dwNtbInMaxSize and dwNtbOutMaxSize respectively. It was therefore assumed that usbnet_change_mtu() would never touch rx_urb_size. This failed to consider the case where dwNtbInMaxSize and dwNtbOutMaxSize happens to be equal. Fix by implementing an NCM specific change_mtu ndo, modifying the netdev MTU without touching the buffer size settings. Signed-off-by: Bjørn Mork <bjorn@mork.no> Signed-off-by: David S.
