[2/2] net/memif: fix driver init with default MTU
Checks
Commit Message
Driver is using 'ETH_FRAME_LEN' Linux defined value as max frame length,
which doesn't include FCS (4 bytes CRC). But ethdev by default uses
frame size with FCS when application doesn't define any explicit value.
As a result device configuration fails because device is tried to be
configured with a frame size length that is bigger than what device
reported as supported. Device reports as max supported frame size is
1514 but configured value is 1518.
Instead use DPDK macro, 'RTE_ETHER_MAX_LEN', that includes FCS in the
driver to report the max supported frame size, this matches to the
initial intention.
Fixes: 1bb4a528c41f ("ethdev: fix max Rx packet length")

The cast is not necessary here. Not sure why the original code had it?

ack.
I will send a new version to remove the cast, since touching those lines.
