4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
[ Upstream commit 4f2f017c6101ab2ba202d6059c238c15577ad38b ]
HW/NVM sets a limit of no less than 256 bytes for MSS. Stack can send as
low as 76 bytes MSS. This patch lowers the HW limit to 64 bytes to avoid
MDDs from firing and causing a reset when the MSS is lower than 256.
