If you insist on doing this, you need to save the old value and restore
it after ip_queue_xmit(). 

The reason is that PMTU discovery change on a specific transport or
association should not affect the socket, since there could be multiple
associations on a given socket.  Each association has it's own control.

Yes but they'll all pass through here so it'll get set to the
appropriate value.

Cheers,

OK, I see what you mean.  Let me run some tests with this patch.  I doesn't
look like it will cause any issues, but I'd like to verify.

Like Herbert said, thanks for doing this testing.

Let me know how it goes so I can apply the patch if everything
is OK.
