[ofa-general] patch to ib_addr for sending arps

[leo.tominna at oracle.com]

Hi Or,

One problem is that policy routing (I referred to it as source based 
routing) doesn't work with ib_addr, that was the initial patch I sent out.

The second problem is that on some platforms like HPUX, this stuff works 
even without special routing rules (that was the additional lines added 
in my previous reply email, setting oif explicitly).  I'll reply to 
Jason's email, but it looks like this is not really a problem.

Thanks,
Leo Tominna
