  Log Message:
  -----------
  netdev: If MTU set fails, issue warn log.

Recently, an issue was debugged that was thought to be a bond
failover triggered issue.  It turned out to an vlan interface MTU set issue
that had nothing to do with bonding or most other likely possibilities.
Besides the effect of not setting the MTU to the desired value, this can
result in increased netlink traffic and processing with associated wasted
work. Let us flag a configuration issue at warn level (rather than dbg) to
catch the problem early.
