This patch enables driver support of MTUs greater than 1500. Though the adapter documentation says that maximum MTU is 16k, the largest packet I could send was 7440. So, I am setting that as the max mtu until I can figure out why the adapter misbehaves with packets larger than 7440.

this is dependent on hardware FIFO sizes...
