Handle Ethernet neighbour updates during route resolution.

The IWCM uses the ib_addr services to do route resolution (neighbour
discovery in the IP world).  The ib_addr netevent callback routine,
however, currently only acts on Inifininband neighbour updates.  It needs
to act on ethernet neighbour updates as well.

This patch just removes filtering on device type altogether and
will trigger on any neighour updates where the nud_type is valid.
This simplifies the code some.
