[ipoib] Expose Ethernet-compatible eIPoIB link-layer addresses and headers
Almost all clients of the raw-packet interfaces (UNDI and SNP) can handle only Ethernet link layers. Expose an Ethernet-compatible link layer to local clients, while remaining compatible with IPoIB on the wire. This requires manipulation of ARP (but not DHCP) packets within the IPoIB driver. This is ugly, but it's the only viable way to allow IPoIB devices to be driven via the raw-packet interfaces. Signed-off-by: Michael Brown <mcb30@ipxe.org>
