[PATCH RESEND] ip_gre: sendto/recvfrom NBMA address

["Timo Teräs" <timo.teras@iki.fi>]

When GRE tunnel is in NBMA mode, this patch allows an application to use
a PF_PACKET socket to:
- send a packet to specific NBMA address with sendto()
- use recvfrom() to receive packet and check which NBMA address it came from

Signed-off-by: Timo Teras <timo.teras@iki.fi>

This is useful for implementing NHRP (and other low level protocols) over
NBMA GRE tunnels.

Posted about a week ago, but got no reply. Could someone comment on this?
Or commit it? Thanks.
