This isn't ideal, but neither is the current VNET_HDR stuff and it does
fix a genuine bug. At least it's not changing existing APIs and makes it
clear this is a problem we also need to solve when merging VNET_HDR
support upstream.

(Gleb - it might be worth patching qemu.git to use qemu_send_packet() in
announce_self(), that will reduce the delta between the trees)

Cheers,
Mark.
