[Bridge] [PATCH] bridge:fragmented packets dropped by bridge

Given following setup:
-modprobe br_netfilter
-echo '1' > /proc/sys/net/bridge/bridge-nf-call-iptables
-brctl addbr br0
-brctl addif br0 enp2s0
-brctl addif br0 enp3s0
-brctl addif br0 enp6s0
-ifconfig enp2s0 mtu 1300
-ifconfig enp3s0 mtu 1500
-ifconfig enp6s0 mtu 1500
-ifconfig br0 up

                 multi-port
mtu1500 - mtu1500|bridge|1500 - mtu1500
  A                  |            B
                   mtu1300

With netfilter defragmentation/conntrack enabled, fragmented
packets from A will be defragmented in prerouting, and refragmented
at postrouting.
But in this scenario the bridge found the frag_max_size(1500) is
larger than the dst mtu stored in the fake_rtable whitch is
always equal to the bridge's mtu 1300, then packets will be dopped.

This modifies ip_skb_dst_mtu to use the out dev's mtu instead
of bridge's mtu in bridge refragment.
