Uses the same method as various other drivers: shut the device down,
change the MTU, then bring it back up again.

Tested on Renesas D3 Draak board.

Hi!

This revision incorporates Simon's and Sergei's suggestions, namely calling
netdev_update_features() whether the device is up or not. Thanks to
reviewers!
