Well, it *was* being set by passing the configured MTU down into
virNetDevTapCreateInBridgePort(), until I had to revert patch 2841e675,
which automatically propagated the bridge's MTU back in the opposite
direction (it turns out the same patch made MTU propagate in both
directions).

On one hand, I dislike the idea that the MTU of the tap is now being set
twice (once when it's created, to match the MTU of the bridge, and again
here). On the other hand, by setting it here, you've taken care of
type='direct' (macvtap) and type='ethernet' (tap not connected to any
bridges) as well, which is a win, so ACK.
