      Description of problem:

          WHen a user creates a ovn-kubernetes NAD without specifying MTU the default MTU is the one decided by CNO, it makes a calcualtion taking into account underlay - overlay overhead, so clearly is not 1300 as stated at the docs.

      Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

          4.18

      How reproducible:

          Always

      Steps to Reproduce:

          1.
          2.
          3.
          

      Actual results:

      The maximum transmission unit (MTU). The default value, 1300, is automatically set by the kernel.    

      Expected results:

          The maximum transmission unit (MTU). The default value, is computed by openshift taking into account (underlay mtu) - (overlay overhead) for the primary interface.
