if_vlan allow to set incorrect mtu

Hi!


Why if_vlan allow to set same MTU size or bigger as on parrent nic?


Setup:
- workstation with MTU 9000 and IPv4 on h/w nic
- server with MTU 9000 on h/w nic and IPv4 on vlan nic with MTU 9000 (set by defauil on iface creation)

This setup have issue:
- big packets from server->wks - OK
- big packets from wks->server - FAIL.

Server init sequence:
1. Create vlans
2. Set MTU lower than default on parent nic

Result: vlan have bigger or same MTU as parrent nic, but parrent nic reports IFCAP_VLAN_MTU.
Probably this is if_em driver issue or iflib.



This is rc.conf, vlan77 - where I got MTU 9000 and fail to receive packets:
