Not only mtu but do you think should we document in 'rte_eth_dev_info_get()'
doxygen documentation, the default values that API sets?

If we rely on 'rte_eth_dev_info_get()', we should add a check if "dev_infos_get"
is supported before calling it, like [1]. Unfortunately 'rte_eth_dev_info_get()'
return type is 'void', so we can't know if the struct has valid values or not
otherwise.
Or perhaps if port doesn't support "dev_infos_get", we can skip the mtu check
instead of returning error.

[1]
RTE_FUNC_PTR_OR_ERR_RET(*dev->dev_ops->dev_infos_get, -ENOTSUP);

Should we document this behavior change in the function comment in header file?
Update when -EINVAL returned, etc..
