From: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com>

We would like to enable the use of siw on top of a VPN that is
constructed and managed via a tun device. That hasn't worked up
until now because ARPHRD_NONE devices (such as tun devices) have
no GID for the RDMA/core to look up.

But it turns out that the egress device has already been picked for
us. addr_handler() just has to do the right thing with it.
