Hi Lukasz

commit 7e9517375a14f44ee830ca1c3278076dd65fcc8f
Author: Vladimir Oltean [off-list ref]

    net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: fix max_mtu of 1492 on 6165, 6191, 6220,
6250, 6290 
    There are 3 classes of switch families that the driver is aware
of, as far as mv88e6xxx_change_mtu() is concerned:
    
    - MTU configuration is available per port. Here, the
      chip->info->ops->port_set_jumbo_size() method will be present.
    
    - MTU configuration is global to the switch. Here, the
      chip->info->ops->set_max_frame_size() method will be present.
    
    - We don't know how to change the MTU. Here, none of the above
methods will be present.
    
    Switch families MV88E6165, MV88E6191, MV88E6220, MV88E6250 and
MV88E6290 fall in category 3.


Vladimir indicates here that it is not known how to change the max MTU
for the MV88E6250. Where did you get the information from to implement
it?
Please refer to [1].

The mv88e6185_g1_set_max_frame_size() function can be reused (as
registers' offsets and bits are the same for mv88e60{71|20}).

After using Vladimir's patch there is no need to add max_frame size
field and related patches from v6 can be dropped.
However, you haven't responded to:

https://lore.kernel.org/all/ZGzP0qEjQkCFnXnr@shell.armlinux.org.uk/ (local)

to explain why what you're doing (adding this function) is safe.

Thanks.
