But that should never happen with the current code, since
ovpn_nl_peer_float_notify is only called by ovpn_peer_endpoints_update
when salen != 0, and in that case we can only have ss_family = AF_INET
or ss_family = AF_INET6? (and otherwise it'd be an unitialized value
from ovpn_peer_endpoints_update)

(no objection to making ovpn_nl_peer_float_notify handle that
situation better in case it grows some other callers/contexts)
