[pve-devel] [PATCH qemu-server stable-bookworm v2 4/4] migration: tell users to upgrade if nets-host-mtu is required but not supported

[Fiona Ebner]

See also commit "migration: only use nets-host-mtu for PVE 8 target if
actually required". Tell people to upgrade when the target does not
support preserving the VirtIO-net MTU yet and that is required for the
migration at hand.
