[PATCH] rds: Error on offset mismatch if not loopback

[John Jolly <jjolly@suse.com>]

Attempting an rds connection from the IP address of an IPoIB interface
to itself causes a kernel panic due to a BUG_ON() being triggered. Making
the test less strict allows rds-ping to work without crashing the machine.

A local unprivileged user could use this flaw to crash the sytem.
