Good feature! I'm sorry, the series fell through the cracks.

The series looks good, but this part should not check for the backend type.
Instead, rename the callback as get_mtu and call peer->get_mtu, so if we add
the feature to other backends like vhost-user or vhost-vdpa this part of the
code does not need to be modified.

Thanks!
