Public bug reported:

LXC containers configured with lxc.network.mtu = 9000

On start/restart using lxc-* commands, the mtu on the host and in
container interface is correctly set to 9000.

However, if the container is rebooted internally, the mtu of the veth on
the host resets to 1500, whilst the container interface is still set to
9000.

This causes some odd network behaviour.
