Change Summary

There are cloud environments available where the maximum supported ethernet MTU is e.g. 1450 bytes, thus we clamp this to the adapters maximum MTU value or 1500 bytes - whatever is lower.

…l values

In order to lower the Ethernet default MTU we need to drop the common
defaultValue from the XML mtu-68-16000.xml.i building block. Per interface
default MTU is later overloaded by XML.
There are cloud environments available where the maximum supported ethernet
MTU is e.g. 1450 bytes, thus we clamp this to the adapters maximum MTU value
or 1500 bytes - whatever is lower.
