The Flower app may receive a request to update the MTU of a representor
netdev upon receipt of a control message from the firmware. This requires
the RTNL lock which needs to be taken outside of the packet processing
path.

As a handling of this correctly seems a little to invasive for a fix simply
skip setting the MTU for now.
