Some hardware start settings implicitely assume an usual 1500 bytes mtu

 Tomi, can you give this one a try ? It should be the "don't break non
 jumbo setup and fix similar problem on different chipsets" patch that
 my previous hack wasn't.
I'll try this one out tomorrow. However, it seems that I was able
to get the same hang even with the previous patch when I turned the
power on ... All the previous testing I've done were just normal
reboot's and the one liner fixed those cases 100%, but once
I turned the power completely off and then back on, the NIC hanged
in the same way as before with the jumbo frames enabled from boot.

In case it matters, this happened with 3.4.33 kernel, as the 3.7.x
still have some unresolved nouveau bugs with my HTPC box graphics card.
