I've read server.el for the whole afternoon, and I think when 
`make-frame` is called, Emacs server already gets Wayland Display from 
client (this bug only happens in Wayland as I mentions).

And actually Emacs doesn't need to get display geometry before maximize, 
in Wayland it works in this way: a window requires to maximize to 
compositor, and compositor decides to make it maximize, it will then 
send the width and height to window via configure event, and all of 
those are handled by GTK so I don't think Emacs should take care of 
those actually.

Plus, if I don't open file via emacsclient (just call `emacsclient 
--create-frame`), the newly create frame is maximized properly, so I 
guess that it is not a display related issue.

Nevermind, I am appreciate that you take time on my problem. :-)
