Public bug reported:

1) The release of Ubuntu you are using, via 'lsb_release -rd' or System -> 
About Ubuntu
Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS

2) The version of the package you are using, via 'apt-cache policy
pkgname' or by checking in Software Center

Kernel version 4.4.0-36

3) What you expected to happen

MTU probing should work automatically, there should be no network
connectivity problems due to too large MTU.

4) What happened instead

I'm having an Ubuntu 16.04 32bit installation running inside Virtualbox,
inside Ubuntu 16.04 64bit installation. Let's call the virtualized
server as A and the host server as B.

B is connected to Internet with static, public IP address. There are no
problems in its network connectivity i.e. it can be reached well with
any service from Internet.

A has been given a static, public IP address. Actually A is using B's
network card in connecting, but in my earlier virtual server
installations, this hasn't caused any problems. In earlier installations
(14.04 and before), there were no problems with network connectivity.

Now, in the fresh 16.04.01 32bit installation on B, it seems that MTU is
not probed properly. For example, if I'm trying to have a SSH connection
from some internet host into B, the SSH connection freezes in "expecting
SSH2_MSG_KEX_ECDH_REPLY" phase.

I tried manually setting net.ipv4.tcp_mtu_probing value to 1 and also 2,
but it did not help. After I manually set the MTU value for lower value,
connectivity problems went away.
