[ Upstream commit ab123fe071c9aa9680ecd62eb080eb26cff4892c ]
When driver gets notification for mtu change, driver does not handle it for all RQs. It handles only RQ[0].
Fix is to use enic_change_mtu() interface to change mtu for vf.
[...]
This causes a assertion failure (noisy error logging, but not an oops) when the driver is probed. This was fixed upstream by:

enic: do not call enic_change_mtu in enic_probe
which is now needed on the 3.18, 4.4, and 4.9 stable branches.
Ah, I didn't realize it was really needed on the older branches as well, due to the lack of the mtu settings on those kernel trees in this driver.
I've now backported it there, thanks.
