[PATCH] net: macb: Adding Support for Jumbo Frames up to 10240 Bytes in SAMA5D3

From: vishnuvardhan <vardhanraj4143 at gmail.com>

As per the SAMA5D3 device specification it supports Jumbo frames.
But the suggested flag and length of bytes it supports was not updated
in this driver config_structure.
The maximum jumbo frames the device supports :
10240 bytes as per the device spec.

While changing the MTU value greater than 1500, it threw error:
sudo ifconfig eth1 mtu 9000
SIOCSIFMTU: Invalid argument

Add this support to driver so that it works as expected and designed.
