When a via address isn't specified, the via table is left initialised
to 0 (NEIGH_ARP_TABLE), and the via address length also left
initialised to 0. This results in a via address array of length 0
being allocated (contiguous with route and nexthop array), meaning
that when a packet is sent using neigh_xmit the neighbour lookup and
creation will cause an out-of-bounds access when accessing the 4 bytes
of the IPv4 address it assumes it has been given a pointer to.
This could be fixed by allocating the 4 bytes of via address necessary
and leaving it as all zeroes. However, it seems wrong to me to use an
ipv4 nexthop (including possibly ARPing for 0.0.0.0) when the user
didn't specify to do so.
Instead, set the via address table to NEIGH_NR_TABLES to signify it
hasn't been specified and use this at forwarding time to signify a
neigh_xmit using an L2 address consisting of the device address. This
mechanism is the same as that used for both ARP and ND for loopback
interfaces and those flagged as no-arp, which are all we can really
support in this case.
