However, now jumbo frame support now requires adding the firmware
files in the initramfs as per
https://forum.armbian.com/topic/30415-thinkpad-x13s-remoteproc-firmware-fails-to-load-if-on-a-fast-boot-device/
and/or it is a bit unstable, sometimes the link will come down and
then up and jumbo frames stop working. Disconnecting the USB Ethernet
adapter and reconnecting it makes jumbo frames work again.
