It's unnecessary to explicitly declare a function as inline, instead
please let GCC smartly decide this.

For UDP bearer, it seems insufficient for us to check MTU size only when
UDP bearer is enabled. Meanwhile, we should update MTU size for UDP
bearer with Path MTU discovery protocol once MTU size is changed after
bearer is enabled.
