I am still concerned to use port offloads to set the queue specific offloads, 
this may lead unexpected result.

Below is what Steve provided as reproduce steps [1], I think that is application 
(testpmd) miss-configuration to update 'max-pkt-len' but not update the 
JUMBO_FRAME offload flag and MTU accordingly.

What do you think update the JUMBO_FRAME offload flag (both for port and queues) 
according and set MTU according on the testpmd command where 'max-pkt-len' is 
set? This is more like your first version.
