From: Stefano Brivio <sbri...@redhat.com> Otherwise, it's possible to specify invalid MTU values directly on creation of a link (via 'ip link add'). This is already prevented on subsequent MTU changes by commit b96f9afee4eb ("ipv4/6: use core net MTU range checking").
Fixes: c54419321455 ("GRE: Refactor GRE tunneling code.")
