selftests/bpf: Fix check_mtu using wrong variable type
[ Upstream commit 095641817e1bf6aa2560e025e47575188ee3edaf ]
Dan Carpenter found via Smatch static checker, that unsigned 'mtu_lo' is
never less than zero.
Variable mtu_lo should have been an 'int', because read_mtu_device_lo()
uses minus as error indications.
