Log:
  MFC r336195: unbreak dhclient(8) option 26 processing

    Make dhclient(8) verify if new MTU (option 26) differs from current one
    and skip unneeded MTU change. This check eliminates infinite loop
    of MTU change / link flap / lease verification / MTU change / link flap
etc.
    in case of some NIC drivers like em(4) or igb(4).
