    Fix missing functions for net_device_ops.
    It's a bug when porting the drivers from 2.6.27 to 2.6.32. In 2.6.27,
    the default functions for Ethernet, like eth_change_mtu(), were assigned
    by ether_setup(). But in 2.6.32, these function pointers moved to
    net_device_ops structure and no longer be assigned in ether_setup(). So
    we need to set these functions in our driver code. It will ensure the
    MTU won't be set beyond 1500. Otherwise, this can cause an error on the
    server side, because the HyperV linux driver doesn't support jumbo frame
    yet.
