[PATCH v6] net/i40e: rework maximum frame size configuration

[Simei Su]

The issue reported by David is that error occurs in OVS due to the fix
patch in mentionned changes below. The detailed reproduce step and result
is in https://patchwork.dpdk.org/project/dpdk/patch/
20211207085946.121032-1-dapengx.yu at intel.com/.

This patch removes unnecessary link status check and directly sets mac
config in dev_start. Also, it sets the parameter "wait to complete" true
to wait for more time to make sure adminq command execute completed.

Fixes: a4ba77367923 ("net/i40e: enable maximum frame size at port level")
Fixes: 2184f7cdeeaa ("net/i40e: fix max frame size config at port level")
Fixes: 719469f13b11 ("net/i40e: fix jumbo frame Rx with X722")
