[PATCH net-next 2/2] firewire: net: set initial MTU = 1500 unconditionally, fix IPv6 on some CardBus cards

firewire-net, like the older eth1394 driver, reduced the initial MTU to less than 1500 octets if the local link layer controller's asynchronous packet reception limit was lower. This is bogus, since this reception limit does not have anything to do with the transmission limit. Neither did this
