[IPV4] ip_gre: sendto/recvfrom NBMA address

Browse Source 
When GRE tunnel is in NBMA mode, this patch allows an application to use
a PF_PACKET socket to:
- send a packet to specific NBMA address with sendto()
- use recvfrom() to receive packet and check which NBMA address it came from

This is required to implement properly NHRP over GRE tunnel.
