Public bug reported:

There should be a parameter to define MTU for DVR interfaces in
l3_agent.ini config file


Since configuring the MTU as 8900 for DVR router interfaces gives better performance, it should be good to provide an option to configure the MTU for DVR interfaces in l3_agent.ini config file. 

By default the DVR interface MTU is configured as 1500. Since we have
seen the significant improvements in performance with MTU 8900 for DVR
interfaces, it would be good to provide an attribute/parameter in the
l3_agent config file to enable the user to provide the desired MTU for
the DVR interfaces.
