+ Commit e64fe5ad3a23 removed in6_maxmtu and its setter in6_setmaxmtu().
+ in6_maxmtu is used to store the max IPv6 MTU of all interfaces,
+ however it does not have any in-tree consumers since the introduction
+ from the KAME project. The removal should have little impact, and the
+ max IPv6 MTU can be easily retrieved by iterating over all the attached
+ interface if 3rd party modules need it.

Commit 772258c89f28 changed the internal API between the nfscommon
and nfscl modules. Both need to be built from updated sources.
