Thank you for raising this issue, so just to confirm, OVN 20.03 already does send ICMP type 3 (Destination Unreachable) code 4 (Fragmentation needed and DF was set) [4] to instances in the cloud, informing the client of the gateway MTU when the `gateway_mtu` flag is set on the LRP.

So the issue you are describing would only come into play if there are machines connected directly to the provider network using a MTU > the OVN LR MTU and/or a external to openstack router has MTU > the OVN LR MTU on its L3 interface facing the provider network?
