[ Upstream commit 453a77894efa4d9b6ef9644d74b9419c47ac427c ]

It has been reported [0] that using pause frames in jumbo mode impacts
performance. There's no available chip documentation, but vendor
drivers r8168 and r8125 don't advertise pause in jumbo mode. So let's
do the same, according to Roman it fixes the issue.
