It is not appropriate to set to 16K by default in ethdev layer.
Because I don't see any check for the upper bound in some driver, like 
axgbe, enetc and so on.
I'm not sure if they have no upper bound.
And some driver's maximum buffer size is "16384(16K) - 128"
So it's better to set to UINT32_MAX by default.
what do you think?
