NET: Fix /proc/net/arp for AX.25
When sending ARP requests over AX.25 links the hwaddress in the neighbour
cache are not getting initialized. For such an incomplete arp entry
ax2asc2 will generate an empty string resulting in /proc/net/arp output
like the following:
$ cat /proc/net/arp
IP address HW type Flags HW address Mask Device
192.168.122.1 0x1 0x2 52:54:00:00:5d:5f * ens3
172.20.1.99 0x3 0x0 * bpq0
The missing field will confuse the procfs parsing of arp(8) resulting in
incorrect output for the device such as the following:
$ arp
Address HWtype HWaddress Flags Mask Iface
gateway ether 52:54:00:00:5d:5f C ens3
172.20.1.99 (incomplete) ens3
This changes the content of /proc/net/arp to:
$ cat /proc/net/arp
IP address HW type Flags HW address Mask Device
172.20.1.99 0x3 0x0 * * bpq0
192.168.122.1 0x1 0x2 52:54:00:00:5d:5f * ens3
To do so it change ax2asc to put the string "*" in buf for a NULL address
argument. Finally the HW address field is left aligned in a 17 character
field (the length of an ethernet HW address in the usual hex notation) for
readability.
