ixgbe: allow to increase MTU to 3K with XDP enabled

commit f9cd6a4418bac6a046ee78382423b1ae7565fb24 upstream.

Recently I encountered one case where I cannot increase the MTU size
directly from 1500 to a much bigger value with XDP enabled if the
server is equipped with IXGBE card, which happened on thousands of
servers in production environment. After applying the current patch,
we can set the maximum MTU size to 3K.

This patch follows the behavior of changing MTU as i40e/ice does.
