IPoIB: Use dev_set_mtu() to change mtu

Browse Source 
When the driver sets the MTU of the net device outside of its
change_mtu method, it should make use of dev_set_mtu() instead of
directly setting the mtu field of struct netdevice.  Otherwise
functions registered to be called upon MTU change will not get called
(this is done through call_netdevice_notifiers() in dev_set_mtu()).
