- if_bridge(4) set its MTU based on the first interface attached to it. So the logic here must be, physical interface MTU set on tap(4) and tap attached to if_bridge.

Without following the logic above, the bridge MTU will always be 1500 as well as tap. So interfaces with support to JUMBO FRAMES will never be attached to bridge.
