batman-adv: Revert "use core MTU range checking in misc drivers"
The maximum MTU is defined via the slave devices of an batman-adv interface. Thus it is not possible to calculate the max_mtu during the creation of the batman-adv device when no slave devices are attached. Doing so would for example break non-fragmentation setups which then (incorrectly) allow an MTU of 1500 even when underlying device cannot transport 1500 bytes + batman-adv headers. Checking the dynamically calculated max_mtu via the minimum of the slave devices MTU during .ndo_change_mtu is also used by the bridge interface.
