Currently the NCM driver restricts wMaxSegmentSize that indicates
the datagram size coming from network layer to 1514. However the
spec doesn't have any limitation. For P2P connections over NCM,
increasing MTU helps increasing throughput.
Add support to configure this value before configfs symlink is
created. Also since the NTB Out/In buffer sizes are fixed at 16384
bytes, limit the segment size to an upper cap of 15014. Set the
default MTU size for the ncm interface during function bind before
network interface is registered allowing MTU to be set in parity
with wMaxSegmentSize.

I think you need byte swap here.

That said, I don't really follow what this is doing...
Hi Maciej,
Can you help clarify what you think here is wrong ?
Since increasing segment size give better throughputs in P2P connections
that don't necessarily exchange internet data, we need to have the
felxibility to change the value as per requirement of the application
using the interface and hence this attempt at adding the configfs parameter.
Regards,
Krishna,
